Saratoga contest-within-the-contest: Whitney>Travers

[tenfurlongs]

The three players with the highest daily scores on Whitney Day, Saturday August 4th, will be awarded wagers on the 2018 Travers Day card as follows:

1st-$60
2nd-$20
3rd-$10

Each player has up to twelve selections to use on any given day, so factor that into this “daily” strategy. Note that these are NOT separate selections from the main contest, they count towards that bankroll too. Any questions, anything I didn’t think of, let me know before the main contest starts. Many thanks to WrightStuff and tims70ar, the sponsors of this special event!

And if there's a tie?

[tenfurlongs]

All ties split the pot. Example: Tie for first- Split $60 + $20= $40 each. Six way tie for third- everybody gets a $2 wager. Etc....

Thank you very much, Tom.  I can't help but think that I was a beneficiary of all of the chaos that occurred today, as some players who wanted to make the maximum number of picks didn't redo their selections to compensate for the cancellation of Races 10 & 11.

It was a lot of fun to have this "contest within a contest".  I hope it can be included again in the future.
