Mod by Monday Morning
Saratoga Race Course meet dates 7/24 - 9/7 with no racing on Tuesdays

Contest Rules:

Free contest, $100 winner take all and is to open to ALL CTG members

You must select 1 horse to win each racing day at Saratoga Race Course throughout the meet, you are allowed to miss making up to 4 picks before being DQed, not making any pick that day will be scored as -$2

ALL bets are WIN and based on a $2 win bet (I.e. all losers counted as -$2, if your horse won that day and paid $6.40, you are +$6.40 for the day)

Score will be kept based on bankroll (not wins), highest bankroll at the end of the meet is the winner

You may select 2 horses in 1 day but only #1 counts unless horse is scratched

If you do not select a 2nd pick for that day and your 1st horse scratches and you did not post another pick for that day would count as -$2

If your horse is a gate scratch and it's the last race that day, you likely will not have time to post another pick, but will be allowed 2 picks that count on the next racing day.

Entries are available 2 and 3 days in advance, so advanced picks are allowed just date
it properly

Must post selection before post time of race you are selecting, no past posts

When standings aren't updated daily, they will be updated every Tuesday

No edits or deletes after post time of 1st race, if something has to be added or changed for any reason just quote original post

Example #1 of how picks made: 8/5 R3 #6 (no need to put win, all picks are win anyways)

Example #2: 8/5 (1) R3 #6 (2) R6 #7...only way 2nd pick that day would count is if your top choice was scratched or if you fell under the gate scratch last race rule

If you select an entry i.e. 1/1A, 2/2B...you get both parts of entry

Like I previously stated, posted plays based on date/race #/horse #

Dudleysdad had a winner today and horse he had won, he just made a mistake on horse name because he had multiple windows open, no problem.
