This is another fun contest on another slow racing day. The object is to pick the horse that will finish LAST! In any handicapping event, knowing what horses are NON-competitors is also sometimes a challenge.

A few years ago, a friend and I were at the track, and we got into a discussion about which was the worst horse in a very bad lot of horses... we ended up betting a dime with each other....his finished a half length behind mine ... and they both were at the end! :)

BONUS: You will also win, for your VCASH account, the TOTAL amount that is bet. In case of ties, it will be evenly divided equally.

Good luck!

I Should Have No Problem With This.finally A Contest I Could Be Good At.

[Jerfi]

Hi, Scottsdad,

Well, the problem I will have with this race is that too many times, the one I pick to WIN finishes last! :)

[scottsdad]

I Am Picking Whoever Danstep Chooses.

[Jerfi]

as far as my pick, I can give you a "sure" thing in this contest......

[Jerfi]

Hey, Dan,

Can we take side bets on whether or not you will select the last horse? :)

[Jerfi]

Aha! :) an idea! :)

Read the GENERAL DISCUSSION POST ... and let's see what happens! :)

[danstep43]

as long as I can get in on the side bet.....:)

[danstep43]

[scottsdad]

Danstep,just Guess.it Will Be Just Like You Posting Picks---lol

[danstep43]

that's what worries me....lol

did I tell ya I got one for ya all???

[thegrandmeister]

jerfi; just to humor you + i approve of creative thinking. good man. but- you shouldn't do it often. it can lead to bad study habits. handicapping to lose ,or finish last . that is not our raison d"etre . but a novelty on a slow day .i understand your thinking J.M.

[Jerfi]

HI, GM,

Not every contest is for everyone....the same process goes into the selections. All that anyone is doing is ranking the horses, and taking the bottom one, rather than the top.

How does that differ from ranking, and taking the top one?

[scottsdad]

It Would Be Funny If Danstep Picked A Horse And It Won The Race.

[totecapper]

That was funny. I'm still laughing.

the kids a Tapper, and a good one, that's why I don't have any $$$$ to bet and box 6 horses......of course to catch a $1.00 exacta to lose $$$$, all my dime pays for those Dang competitions

[Jerfi]

Hey, Dan,

Here's a tip... :)

JUST FOR YOU ... if you select the last place finisher correctly, YOU get a bonus of $1000 in your VCASH account.

This is to make up for all the teasing you have so good-naturedly taken! :)

This will replenish some of your money... if you win! :)

[danstep43]

IM gonna wait till I get home for this one to take my time and select the loser......lol

[totecapper]

Don't listen to them, Dan.

Listen, when your done with Mnr, I could use some help with HOL for tomorrow.

[bettowin]

The horse i pick for last, should probably bet for show, will probably pay
$20 for 3rd.

[Jerfi]

Well, there's plenty of time to get your bet in, at your usual service! :)

If you think he will show.. I think I'll choose maybe another one to run last! :)

[scottsdad]

Totecapper,dan Kicks Butt At Hollywood.he Is The Man For Longshots.

[Jerfi]
