This is good, maybe there will be a few more. You watch, ok.

It's beautiful outside, not a cloud anywhere and there's lots to do all around the yard with everything leafing out, and greening up. (If I can hang with the pollen.)

I can't watch today. Heading to the GTown NC game at the Big M....Pretty good stuff though I'm not a big College Basket fan...Hopefully I'll come home to some big place prices. Probably not.

Thanks for posting Rand.

I'm sorry the Heels lost today. They've choked on some many BIG games over the years. Man, have they ever.

I was rooting for GTown Grits, I was quite happy.

Good, I'm glad your team pulled it out for you. They were good. Carolina blew a 10 point lead. Where's that rolling eyes furball thing.

Such is life.

Randall, this has faded, and interest is pretty much lost. What's the point in continuing? The reads are not accruing here any longer? No one is noting any of the longshots or exactas, but you and I for the most part, though AntiT. looks in now and then.

Due to our creating a banter back and forth, it started strong with great interest, but now its fizzled. What do you say we call it a done-deal?

You're doing the work, and ...you know...you don't have to keep it up.

Why don't we buy one another a couple of drinks in August, and we're square???

As Payson said, there are people who care and the study needs to go to 250 to work...It is in the Contest room so few people are going to read it. But some care and I sure do....I wasn't doing this for Joe Horseracing fan who isn't interested in the gambling aspect. If it was just you and me looking at it, I'd still want to do it. So sit back and relax. You will beat me, by what I don't know, but you don't have to crunch the numbers. And honestly it takes me like 10 minutes a night. I don't mind at all.

I look in on it pretty much every day. If the banter runs out that's fine.
But I love studies and numbers so I would say keep it up. Its interesting to people that spend time thinking about their wagers.

And thanks to Randall for following through with the data collection and posting.

I think this thread is great. I'm a win/place better and reading this really has made me re-think a few things.

WP bettor and I usually backwheel favorites, this has been a good thread to check on daily. It might be nice just to see the figures without the banter, less posts to scroll through. I just need to find the right longshot to come in!!!

Thanks for keeping us informed!!!

I'm reading, even though you could do all of this with historical data. I still think it's interesting.

I was all about Place in the beginning, but now I'm not so sure...
