Very scary accident, wow. There must be a God when you fall off your horse in the stretch of a 12 horse turf race, get literally trampled and stomped by 2 animals, and sit up immediately and is okay. Race 5 the 1 is leading when he throws his head, and loses the jockey who gets trampled by 2 horses who had no chance to avoid, and is just fine.

He was alert but was put on a stretcher and sent on ambulance. Really hope Manny Franco is OK, I have had the opportunity to meet him several times, as he rides my horse, and he is a really nice young man.

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 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

ALL Picks Made In This Thread

*** I have to add a rule and it always should have been in place...If you select an entry 1, 1A or 2, 2B etc...you do get both parts of entry

what does that mean?

 

[Lloyd Braun]

what does that mean?

In some races if more than 1 horse is entered into it with a common ownership interest the horses will be coupled into a common betting interest, they are noted in the program as 1 and !A, if there is more than one coupled entry the second entry will be noted as 2 and 2B.
