how is it possible that that many of the contestants pick every winner of every race? Is it because so many have multiple entries? every day many , many entrants have all three winners no matter the price?

Your horse has to finish in the $$, not just win to stay in.

(I barely did today by just having one of my picks run 3rd.)

Default THE day!

This day has been a LONG time coming....

Too bad there is'nt a horse running today called "againstallodds" because I would bet the bank! There is one named "Three miracles" and that will have to suffice

Best of luck to all playing.

Here are my picks I made for today.

Race 4) Trippin Away
Race 6) Arctiz
Race 9) Three miracles

Good question. I look at some of these prices and wonder how in the hell someone could have them all.

So far my real life betting patterns are holding true. I pick more second place horses than you would think possible.

If I can stay alive the next two days it'll be a minor miracle. This weather is a real problem. How do you handicap for monsoon conditions?

If you think that the administrators have made a calculation error, how would you bring that to their attention? I do not see anywhere on the site where to contact them.
