Points and ROI Totals through May 6, 2023 Derby Day

With double points for those who scored . . . JolyB takes on minor honors with a 4th in Pts and the big winner of the day, with a SWEEP and picking the winner, Real Quiet adds a whopping 72 points to his totals and catapults into the 3 hole (NICE JOB RQ). Ruffian adds nicely to her totals now on the 4th rung of the ladder, while Cruzan200246 takes 3rd place honors hanging tough in the 7 hole. The rest of us were happy to get an exta point for showing up.

Who'd a thunk that Mage would win, well RQ did (for some reason but didn't pick him in the Points Contest). Was it a typo or some sort of Equine Devine Intervention? Only RQ knows and what a haul he made.

BTW PS, I'd be remiss if I didn't give SPECIAL ACCLAIM to Ruffian, Real Quite and Cruzan200246 for nailing the extras they did!!!

1. 172 - Digger
2. 166 - JolyB (4th Pts)
3. 160 - Real Quiet (SWEEP and 10 extra for picking the Winner)
4. 140 - Ruffian (2nd Pts plus 10 extra for Attendance guess of 150,130,with the actual of 150,335 according to Google)
5. 109 - Indian Hemp
6. 100 - DonGuido
7. 107 - Cruzan 200246 3rd Pts and 10 extra for picking the Last place horse)
8. 61 - Cal 828
9. 52 - Zippy
10. 38 - Alli

Sorry, Don, I'm not following the math. I won on 5/27 and it looks like I got the right score, but on 6/3, I only got 11 points; however that was a repeat win so shouldn't I have gotten 10 points for the win plus a bonus of 20 points which would have made my score 104 and then last week I did a threepeat with double points for a triple crown win for 20 points and 30 points for the bonus which I think would have brought my total to 155 or am I wrong about all this?
