Matchup Challenge Feb 28/Mar 1 by Mowens33

Just a note: I thought that this little (hopefully fun contest) for a dozen or so of us matchers, along with the graphic I designed above would help me pay tribute and thanks in a small way to The Hat. My success today at this game is down to his theories and teachings, and to the others here at Pace and Cap who keep it all going.

And so WE ARE OFF!! Mike (mowens33) you are up for this weekend. Post into this thread. Do your worst man!

Let’s take a look at Race 10 at GP
7 Furlongs. Swale-G2 Fasig-Tipton Swale S. Grade II. Purse $200,000 FOR THREE

Not a typical distance

I will post race for Sunday soon.

Good choice Mike. That looks a little tough.

It's been some time since I last posted, but, I'd like to contribute something to this thread.

I think the 1 horse, Daredevil, is tough to beat. Yes, Daredevil's best races have been on an off track, but I think despite the layoff the horse is the speed of the speed and all other early horses will be left in its dust. I think with the layoff he has only become stronger and faster.

There is no value in the race, unless you think Daredevil can be beaten. If so, the 2 horse might be worth a look.

But if I had to bet, I'd bet:

#1 Daredevil to win.

Seven Furlongs,

For the purpose of this contest I need to know exactly what you mean by placing your clear numbered choices at the end of your reply. Are you betting one or two choices and what are their numbers?

Sunday
GG Race 6
Race should be competitive

Pook,

I submitted my post before reading the rules. Sorry.

To be clear for Saturday's race,

I would place a win bet on the :1: horse, Daredevil.

Also folks...Mike is posting 2 races for us this weekend so make sure your replies clearly state which race you are playing.
