![]() Churchill Downs and the Kentucky Derby on Saturday proved to be a puzzle to most and it was a day
when a lot of minus $200 abounded. Only four players cashed a ticket and only two players made some virtual cash. Swedejxn and El Prado had winners but couldn't get into the black. The "Oh the pain" award of the day goes to Plenilune who had 4 $50 win bets and finished 2nd, 2nd, 2nd and 2nd. The number two spot and the place points go to Digger who keeps going and going and going. Digger hit race 12 on a 12-1 horse who closed and got up in time. There is only one American Pharoah and only one Don and he is this weeks Kentucky Derby ROI winner. His strategy of keeping it simple worked just fine as AP returned $7.80 for each $2.00 bet. Congrats Don on the win and for racking up them points. Following are the unofficial results pending any errors. Scratches drove me crazy(er) this week so check your totals. Off to Belmont next week so we'll see you there. WIN..... Don Guido..... +$580.00... Race 11: $200 win 18 $7.80 X 100 $780.00 PLACE.....

Congrats Don! PM me with your address so I can send your KY Derby glass! |
