Hello, everyone.

I set up a CSFMB league on http://www.fantasycapping.com.

League name: CSFMB
Password: Bigfan2013

Let me know if the password doesn't work, as I don't remember if I capitalized the 'f' in Bigfan. :oops:

I'm Shackleford's Posse. Hope to see the horse players and anyone else who wants to join. It's free if you're on the fence.

Saratoga won't draw for Saturday until Wednesday or Thursday. I assume once the race is drawn you'll be able to make your pick.

Just went to the site, and you can now place your bets.

Glad you guys joined. Anyone else who wants in, please do. The more, the merrier.

The first race is this Saturday, August 3rd at 4:45 Central. Plan accordingly.

Hey, is there something wrong with our league site? I know I bet that exacta yesterday. I suppose I may have been dumb enough thst I didn't click "Accept Wager", but I find it hsrd to believe none of you picked Princess Of Sylmsr.

I had it, but I paired it with Carnival Court in my exacta.

I had major effing issues getting my pick to stick on the site yesterday. It was really pissing me off. They changed the way you do it, and unless I missed it, without informing us how or why.

You have to now choose your racing league name and then make your picks before you save them, but it was a lot of trial and error on my part to figure it out. Maybe I'm just a dumbass.

I know I did my pick -- I saw the replica wager slip just like the first two races. When I saw the most of the rest of you didn't have picks either I figured something was broken on the site.

Well, I guess we're all in the same boat, though if you had Princess of Sylmar to win you would have gotten one more point than if you took the exacta.

Alas, Joe Orr, I only put real money on the first race. Pretty sure my horses are still running.

It's a thing I wrestled with, as I knew it would piss me off if I hadn't placed real money on a race I actually won. Oh well.

I can't wait for the Breeder's Cup. Love those races. Is it too early to start planning a get together for this? My wife is from the Heights, so we can go out that way. Whatever works.

No of course not -- too much going on Sunday and never got around to it. :(

Although Friday after taking a beatdown in the last 5 at Arlington we hung around Mr. D's for a few Del Mar races and did ok then.

My wife has really taken a liking to "Where the Surf meets the Turf" as have I. The track announcer is a pleasant listen:

I wish I could hit on races like this when I bet with real money. I was doing that to start but not for the past 6 or 7 races.

I'm not doing very well in this thing, but I'm glad you started it. It's forced me to pay attention to some divisions I wouldn't normally look at and hopefully that will pay dividends for me in the Breeder's Cup. Catalano has a couple youngsters who I suspect haven't shown their best yet.

I just wish there were more betting options. I have a difficult time betting 2-horse exactas when there are more than 7 or 8 horses in a race.

Joe Orr, what's the deal with races that have 1 and 1A horses? I don't understand why that's allowed. Can you please explain?
