Yes - and a $100 bankroll for the main event race of each day's card.

You can get as simple as "$50 to win on #1" or as elaborate as "$5 exacta 1-4, 1,7, 1-8, 1,6, 1,3 and $25 WIN #6."

A lot of work but well worth it, Shooter! It's a fun contest.

Friday's results will be graded by Friday night so you'll know how you stand going into Saturday.

I will try to grade Saturday's results race-by-race during the card, or at least after every 2 or 3 races. This way we can track how the leaders are changing and if you want to adjust bets accordingly.

Remember you can enter selections as early or as late as you want. I'll get the threads up soon after the post position draw is done.

SBR Breeders Cup Two-Day Handicapping Challenge! Win up

It'll certainly be interesting to see what everyone think about Zenyatta's chances.

Reload · 10-31-10, 08:43 PM

Just a few more days, guys!

LAURIN · 10-31-10, 11:03 PM

So I get a bit over $200.00 going and then it's f**kin' Sunday, home of all the great NFL surefire, can't lose, how can it be so easy, why did they make that kind of a crazy spread loosing idiot lines that I so love to bet on. Anyways, the horses sound fantastic, so count me in. Just remember, in these races even the longest shot is still there to win ( and CAN!!!). Good luck to all. And I'll take the 50% if I just happen to get lucky enough.

Each race will clearly have how much bankroll you have to work with.

tblues2005 · 11-04-10, 03:33 AM

I hope it is an improvement from last year on this.

Reload · 11-04-10, 03:57 AM

You are out of luck at that point unless you listed an alternate. See this rule about including an alternate in your posts:

You can list an alternate wager in the event of a scratch. If you have a scratched horse in your wager and have not posted an alternate or revised wager, the wager is a loss.

LAURIN · 11-04-10, 08:37 PM

Well said Joey! I have to add that I came on to this site to look for ways to improve my selection
process, and I'm having a hell of a lot of fun doing it. Thanks again SBR. And now we play the ponies!!!

PROJECT96 · 11-04-10, 09:45 PM

count me in

robmpink · 11-04-10, 10:05 PM

Reload, can you make the picks up until post time or there is a certain cut off time?

Podes · 11-04-10, 10:22 PM

Big time races are fun but always the toughest

jeffdane · 11-05-10, 04:06 AM

maybe a dumb question but to make sure i have action. this is in case of a late scratch.

can i just say "in case of scratch give me the favorite, or longshot," or does it need to be specific.

I know dumb question but like i said just to ensure action in the case of a late scratch or more than one scratch.

Or maybe, put the order of finish with all horses and if scratch take the highest remaining horse. Just curious. I think I will win this thing either way. Now I have something to do Friday. Saturday could be a little sticky the horses and football.

mikejamm · 11-05-10, 05:40 AM

So where are the threads for races 1-4? I only see threads starting with race 5 on Friday. What gives?
