Thanks for the reminder Laura!! I had to use my stupid "smart" phone (oxymoron if I ever seen one) to post picks but it kept going back to the contest home page after my first selection so I did a quick pick instead.

8 Joint Choice
5 Leo's in the House
4 Herecomeslucky

Good luck everyone!

5/20

Race: 5 No: 8 JOINT CHOICE
Race: 6 No: 8 HARDWARE
Race: 8 No: 9 AFLEET MAC

Congrats to you if you did well today! I don't think any of my picks have crossed the finish line yet.

I know I'm being an idiot with my choice in the 5th race (and that I should go with Mass Mailing) but I just can't. There's something about this horse... maybe I'm on drugs. Who knows.

Good luck, guys!

Race 5: 1 JOSHUA JET FUEL

Race 6: 8 PRINCESS SPARKLE

Race 7: 6 MIA‘S MIRACLE
