DDT,

Please review the rules on page one. Each competitor can bet only one horse per race. The rules were later revised to include one long shot.

I have wagered on more than one horse in a race, you did not call it then, but that's okay, rules are rules.

My wager is

$300.00 to win and $100.00 to place on #8 Dialed In. If Dialed In is a late scratch then $200.00 to win and place on #19 Nehro.

Also on page 1 take note that the winner of the contest is the person with the most points, when money earned or lost was mentioned your answering post did not agree with the proposal.

Your bank is $102.00, you cannot bet $96.00 on your long shot play if the track is anything other than fast, you only have $6.00 in your bank after a $96.00 win bet on Soldat.
