    the $2 minimum wager on exacta is that base. in other words can we wager $1 exacta as long as it is at least a $2 wager $1 ex 1/2,3 would cost $2

    There are no $1 wagers allowed this year. I allowed them in the past for exactas but now it's $2 minimum per exacta combination - even on boxes, wheels, etc. Hoping it makes things more competitive.

    Every year there are bombs, always makes for a good contest as you're never really out of it until the last race.

    Very true, Davy! It's always a challenging contest and the main event with its bigger bankroll and possible high payoffs can end up deciding it all.

    On the contest thread, it says 9 races for Saturday.

    But you have 10 races listed for Saturday, Races 2-11.

    Please clarify.
    Points Awarded:

    Reload gave Bigshooter 10 SBR Point(s) for this post.

    Good catch, Bigshooter. Let's go with Races 3-11 then. I will remove Race 2.

    We're off and running in the contest! And what a Friday it was.

    Here is what I have so far for standings - anyone with $200 or higher is listed. Still 9 races left tomorrow - lots of action and anyone can still close big.

    mikejamm leads by a few lengths around the first turn thanks to a nice exacta hit....He's followed by Ryangene ...and inching up behind them it's Bigshooter up to his old self with a solid start...and wow it's horse veteran RICHKAS on the board already! CntryBoy is in fifth after cashing in all three races...The rest of the pack tightens up as we approach the backstretch....

    mikejamm 591.00
    Ryangene 397.50
    Bigshooter 365.00
    Richkas 365.00
    CntryBoy 359.80
    Brewers in 7 348.20
    Roxxyfish 234.50
    patswin 230.00
    BigDaddy 230.00
    Bob Loblaw 230.00
    hhsilver 219.00
    frankzig 215.00
    wtt0315 215.00
    WeinketoWarrick 207.20
