Hmmm- seemed like a couple of hints above.
FYI- my plan is to bet a decent win bet on the Oaks, a few Oaks-Derby doubles, a sizable win bet on the Derby and maybe a small amount devoted to a P3 (in which I will attempt to be a hero for the group). I will post the Friday portions of the bets tomorrow. I have not finalized them and am deliberately waiting until tomorrow in an effort to gauge the weather.

Looks like we are still alive with several options.

My Miss Lily likely would not have been good enough, but had an awful trip. Huge run by Monomoy Girl from the 14 and being pressured the whole way.

Thanks- if Audible could have just got second (or if I had just picked Good Magic) it could have been a bit more. I show $390 back on the Justify win bet and $176.40 back on the Yoshida double for a total of $566.40 with our $300 investment. Big Daddy let me know how you want the money back.

Thanks Shoes and Spider . Put my $111 on Justify so added another $44 to the bankroll. $155 going into the Belmont where weather permitting there should be an outstanding day’s racing

I would be thrilled to handle the Commish slot...honored actually to lead our fine group of horse players! I would suggest that Daddio or someone else take an assistant Commish position just in case of any unseen circumstance such as health issue...jail time...etc...first things first though...setting a date for the DRAFT. We need to coordinate that as it always seems scheduling is tricky. I suggest we discuss things like $ if we play for cash or something like an "Otis Special" for the winner. Should be a very interesting year in the NFL...

I would be glad to be commish of the UIC Fantasy Football League (I'm a glutton for punishment). Who's in? We need to discuss some things I suppose, like a good draft day, what to play for (if anything), etc...

Saratoga boozers would be back and I’m good with the previous rules. I’m good with what ever we come up with in fact. Admission fee, and whatever else is discussed. I’m good with. As far as draft im good with any night. Just hope we have a league.

I'm with you John. I am in three leagues and others have already been reactivated. Besides Sean does anyone have commissioner access who can get the ball rolling?
