Road to the Roses

Postby K~2 » Sat Feb 09, 2008 4:35 pm

Is anyone doing the Road to the Roses this year?

Is there a Pedigree Query league yet?

Yep, but since I'm a truly crummy handicapper (one good reason for not betting in real life), I don't expect to get too far. Still, it's all for fun.

Well geeze, I never have any expectations of actually winning anything :lol: !

I can make a Pedigree Query league, if there isn't one already. I just don't want to make a duplicate.

Win anything? Heck, I'm happy if I have selected a horse that is in any of the races and a winner if any of those horses happen to get any points... lol

Good thing I am not a big gambler or I'd be cleaning stalls for a place to sleep....It is fun though

For some reason none of my points have been scored yet :(

Anyways, for some friendly competition I've created a league if you all would like to join.

entries

Postby hpkingjr » Sun Feb 10, 2008 6:12 am

I have two entries and will add another next week. I have one with zero points and the other is ranked 1824. The second entry at $10.00 was an attempt to win a weekly prize. I have Into Mischief, V. Espinoza and Mandella going today along with Massive Drama. I will try again next week with my third team. The weekly prizes are worth more than the $10.00 entry fee.

At least I got it right with Pyro -- a rare success! be fun to sign up for a little friendly competition.

Yep.. I'm in about 7000th with Pyro as my only point-scorer :) . Would love to join the league though... My nom-du-plume over there is Benjamin Blackbird.; I get tired of being Ruffian all the time.
