Needs to send some moisture east to give us some relief....really bad and will probably get worse

Good to hear that your family is safe. I haven't heard anything about the evacuees. Hope the powers that be learned something from Katrina and were better prepared and don't repeat that debacle. I imagine that the good people and state agencies of East Texas and surrounding states, and the feds will pitch in and help the evacuees. I know the churches here in Arkansas helped a lot of people from Louisiana after Katrina.

Yes. It started in December and goes through 6/24. I registered for it and made a pick for one race and then forgot about it completely.
Regular Delmar contest starts July 17.

How ironic, I did the same exact thing. How was that possible?

[cruzan200246]

I went with #9 and he was a winner. But my question here is how many races must one place to qualify? I rank 82nd

[cal828]

50 or more.

I’ve never done the Del Mar contest. Is it the same set up as Monmouth’s Survival at the Shore or different? I’ll have to check it out.

One race a day chosen by the powers that be at Del Mar. It's usually a turf race. $100 mythical bankroll each day to play. Last year you could play WPS and exactas. I am guessing that they will start with the Oceanside, a turf handicap with 13 starters. Should be a real brain buster to start out. Especially for those like me, that do not play the turf particularly well.

I don't believe there are exactas this year WPS and 25/1 odds...
