Like mmsc, I fear I'll regret that decision!

Okay I did something I almost never do (for the same reason, the scratches) and changed my pick.

Congrats Ski in R4.

Will now go and hold my breath and bang my head against the nearest wall if Fordham Road does well.

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

I knew I was in serious trouble when he was the last horse listed in todays picks and a single person (some moron ) had him.

It was fun lasting this long and now I can root you guys home so one of you needs to win!

Well, you would have been in terrific shape if all the favs had lost! That's not a bad position to be in in a tournament.

Two scratches in the 8th, including one of the main threats. Now a 4-horse race. Taking Include Me Out.

That guarantees that at least one DTer will survive!

Uh oh, that was my pick, too. Hate to see all our DT eggs in one basket, although the name, Two Parts, is sort of appropriate.

I'll take another look after the scratches are posted.

Either way, congrats or good luck!
