Default DT Saratoga Meet Contest 2018

After a three year hiatus, and spelling Saratoga wrong I'm going to see if anyone wants to take a stab at the most difficult horse racing contest on earth!

You get 40 mythical $20 win bets to use during the meet. You can bet when ever you want, even multiple horses in one race. Place your bet by posting in the RULES and Wagering Thread. And if you win, record your winnings in the Saratoga RESULTS THREAD.

Please read the rules. I'll post weekly recaps.

The winner is the person with the highest ROI although I'll keep track of wins as well

It may just be you and me...can't believe we had over 40 people one time. It'll be fun though.

I think there will be at least 40 this time and probably more. There will be some that have jointed DT since the last contest.

Aragona has installed me as the 9/5 morning line favorite to pick up my third title.

Me too. Wonder if da Hoss will play this year ? I will finish ahead of Joe Rockhead in this contest. Maybe if it was mythological $2000 win bets we would draw him out of self imposed exile
