Surely the ROI leader up to this point deserves a bet so:

$50 Win NJS

Joly has had the hot hand of late so:

$50 Win Joly

I would put some money on myself, but I can never resist the siren song of the Classic and it defeats me every year.

The wagers are in, we have 7 bettors betting on 9 wagering interests. It's a pity that Don Guido was a scratch. I was planning to put a bundle on his nose.

The entrants and their odds are as follows:

Real Quiet - 5.36-1
Ruffian - 6-1
Cal - 6-1
Digger - 6-1
JolyB - 6-1
Alli - 13-1
Indian Hemp - 13-1
NJ S - 13-1
Zippy - 16.5-1

It's time to announce the payouts and winner of the "Cap the Cappers" contest. Real Quiet was the post time favorite at odds of 5.36-1 in a very evenly matched field. He prevailed in the Gallivan Cup contest with a very commanding score, making his odds look like a real bargain.

Two players were successful in their wagers on RQ to win. Please note that in the Don Guido wagering emporium there was no takeout and no breakage. However, it is customary to tip the teller when you win.

NJStinks had $50 of his bankroll and won $318.00, for a net profit of $218.00

JolyB bet $60 on RQ and won $382.00 for a net profit of $282.00 and the win at the "Capper of the Cappers."

JB knows how to “Dutch” his bets.
