Looks good.

although, next year you should require a selection for each race.

Thank you.

FTR...I tried to enter my picks on Friday, but my wifi carrier (comcast) was having trouble in our area & didn't get it resolved until Sat evening...after the race.  I know I wouldn't have picked either of the horses that came in  1st or 2nd, but I would have picked Exaggerator to win.

That said, <speech insert>...I want to thank all of the people who helped me reach this point in my race picking career: body by Jake; my personal trainer whom without I couldn't have done this, Uncle Buck; my handicapper at the local horse track, my...O.K. all kidding aside...Vette this was fun & I look fwd to next year's contest...thanks for running it!!! =D> =D> =D>

Congrats to Jolly for winning too!

I do not feel as if I deserve to win (or tie for the win) as I lost interest after Nyquist couldn't handle the mud in the Preakness and then was pulled from the Belmont. Regardless, I enjoyed playing along for the first two legs. Thanks for going through the trouble of setting it up so the rest of us could have some fun on the side.
I told my teenage son, when I was his age, I used to get 10 CDs in the mail for a penny. I don't know if he thought I was lying or even knew what a CD was, or what a penny was, or what the mail was, or all of the above
