I'm still 2 behind the leaders. Going with #4 in Race 1.
I think when Songbird ran a couple times this winter, she was pretty close, but I don't remember for sure. But even with the two gimmes this weekend (Beholder on Sunday and the two 3-horse fields on Saturday) about 250 people lost their perfect streaks, so we are down to 376. Out of 2432 people with at least one correct selection so far, only two have picked four horses to be exactly second, and only one has picked four horses that were exactly third, to go with 29 who already have four winners. Bigrun and I are tied with one win, one second and two thirds so far, so keep up the good work! Anyway, my pick for today is

Race 6

#10 Sugar Spice

Good luck!

I missed yesterday along with 540 others, which dropped the number of 6-in-a-row players to 109.

One more restart, and then I'm done:

Race 3, #2.

You don't have to start over! You're allowed to skip days without affecting your streak. Heck, with 8/8, you're still 5 ahead of me.
