Hey Shoeless welcome to the group! Thanks for joining. Thanks to all that have joined.

This is just a little something to have fun with and at the same time honour Bill who passed too soon a few years ago. Ted asked me to run it and I said sure, why not. Many of you knew Bill much better than I. I met him once at Saratoga in 2017 and he seemed a good guy to me.

So, we will just have fun and somebody will be lucky enough to win some cash.

The current roster of players;

Pook
Ted Craven
Kahunab
Mowens33
CheckMark
Cdax
Shoeless

As of now this will produce a top prize of $245. Something nice to shoot for while fooling around with horses over a couple of weekends that will include the Derby and Preakness. And there are still six days to add more entrants.

No. You can enter as many times as you want. If you wanted to you could be Shoeless, Shoeless2 etc. at $50 per.

We haven’t had any attempt at a Cup defense yet. Buffalo didn’t follow up and play last year. Matt hasn’t entered as of yet to defend his win in 2022.
