It's a 9 week pick 6 handicapping contest that is one of the fantasy contests from ESPN. Some of the persons that are participating in this Grade 1 contest played it last Spring. Espn usually has a Spring and Fall edition of the contest. One leads up to the Kentucky Derby and the other leads up to the Breeder's Cup. You get 6 races to handicap each weekend. Person that does the best (out of "only" 20,000 entrants) gets $500 for that weekend. Person that does the best in the month gets $500. Person that does the best for the whole 9 weeks gets $2000. Not much chance for average handicappers like me to win anything, but still I enjoy playing.
