Regardless of the like stables, it is great to see another group other than the tracks promoting the sport. The fantasy games, the better. It is a fun way to stay involved. Thanks WinStar. And, God bless TIZNOW!

Nice fun looking contest. Not sure how they are going to regulate the Buddy Bucks though and I can see people cheating. How exactly do they plan on verifying this?

That kind of ruins it if "Buddy Bucks" determines the winner.

They've got another contest for the Preakness to name Super Saver's half-brother by Medaglia D'Oro. Here's the link and there's a video of the lil fella. http://winstarfarm.com/media.aspx?vi...&v=2f6b5pvRm7A We'll hopefully have a winner of the contest by this weekend, hopefully both the race and the contest cuz that maximizes the prize.

I've fired off a suggestion. It'd be fun if someone here got to name it. You win some scratch too. If he wins the Preakness you get half whatever comes from a $1000 win bet on him + $100 to spend in their gift shop thingy, and then obvious the opportunity to name the foal. Does anybody know if you can do more than one?
