Anyone else enter this?

Today's race is the 8th, made my pick early this morning. Just hoping to see a few friendly names on the list ABOVE me.:)

Chris

this may be too conservative, last year I went 50 to win on 2 horses

My other wager was to be 50 win on 2 and 9, so let me see if being patient will pay off

the 6 horse worries me

best luck all

Nice hit John, good luck.

That's the one I'm on Ted. We are able to spread $100 wherever we like, but I have $20 win, $20 place and $60 show on the 2. Figure I'll start alittle conservative and wait until later in contest to put $100 to win on a 30/1 shot.

Chris

Very well done Patrick and Chris - excellent start to the Contest and the meet!

And good job Chef in race 2!

:)

Ted

I fell back 200 spots today thou, 4 and 5 for place, oh well
