[jolyb]

Two questions for you Tom. May we place our wagers on the Friday Breeders' Cup races? If the answer to that question is yes, by when would you prefer that they be posted?

Thank you very much.

[tenfurlongs]

Hi Jolyan,

Yes, you can play the two-year old races on Friday if you wish:

www.breederscup.com/races

I'd like to have your picks by 12Noon EDT on Friday for those races, and by 9PM EDT Friday for the Saturday race card. Thanks!

[turffan]

As a placeholder, unless he does not make the field, I’ll take $25 to win on Yoshida in the Classic.

If he doesn’t run, I’ll let you know the replacement. Thanks!

[Badactor]

Hi tenfurlongs and soundsofsaratoga,
I sent a private message on the forum.
Please disregard, as I think the math
is wrong... I'm excited about Breeders Cup.

Back to the drawing board.

[Badactor]

I wrote an e-mail today to Trainer, Tom Amoss...

and he actually took the time to send a brief response!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Hello Mr. Amoss,

I know you are incredibly busy preparing for Breeders' Cup
and I actually wonder if you will even receive this message.
If you do, I want you to know that I wish you the best of luck!

I was fortunate to win an online handicapping contest

at UpInClass Horse Racing Forum and I will be playing

my prize of a $150 wager on your horse at Breeders' Cup.

I've been a fan of yours for a long time. Lone Sailor was

my Derby Horse and I'll be playing him again next weekend.

Good luck at Churchill Downs...

best wishes to you and LONE SAILOR!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Good Luck, Dell. I got your message!

I'd like to place the following wager with my $10 prize

Saturday - Race 10 (BC Turf): $1 Exacta: 2,12 // 1,2,3,4,5,12 ($10)

Thank you very much, Tom. If Enable wins, the exacta probably isn't going to pay that much.  As a fan, I'm just hoping to see a wonderful performance by one of the best horses on the planet and think she can overcome the so-called Arc/Turf jinx.  If she falters, I think that Waldgeist is a very deserving alternative.

Best of success with your BC selections.

[maumeeriverangler]

I'll bet my $10 Prize to Win

Sat Race 7

#2 Promises Fulfilled

Hi Tom, I will deploy the $50 in the $.50 pick-5 pool, races 7-11.

In the event of a late scratch, use your discretion to substitute a runner. Should McKinzie scratch early, bet the $50 on Channel Maker to win.

I'm afraid that only JolyB had a winning wager on the Breeders' Cup card. Your $10 wager returned $13.40. Please let me know if you would like the funds PayPalled to you (I have the email on file). Thanks to everyone for participating, we'll do it again next year. I'm currently putting together the 2019 UIC Tampa Handicapping Championship contest, look for a thread soon in the Tournament Forum.

Thank you very much, Tom. PayPal would be just great, and the e-mail address you have on file is still the correct one.

In addition to the somewhat small winnings, I had the larger treat of watching two outstanding fillies dueling each other down to the wire, having a wager riding on the outcome, with the rest of the field left in their wakes. You just can't put a dollar value on that.

Again, my appreciation to you.

Jolyan

Arrived already. That was quick. Thx
