Missed out on the $64.00 long shot in the opener. Seriously behind the eight ball now given that it’s a pick and pray. Time to start praying 🙏🏼

[cherokeescot]

Eight winners from thirteen so far and after stumbling out of the gate have made it up to 123/ 2075 with two races to go. Have a longshot in the finale just to keep my interest alive.

[cherokeescot]

Finished 103rd which gets me into the next round on Saturday.

[phlierfreak]

[cherokeescot]

Correct

[tc]

Congrats, bev.

Good luck today.

[propro]

Good luck Bev! 5 seats for 200ish people. Great odds there.

[phlierfreak]

where did you finish?

[cherokeescot]

63rd . Basically missed out on the long shot at Tampa in a terrible race that had I been betting the pick 4 would have gone all. Still a fun two days for free . The NHC membership fee of $50 a year is worth it just for the free contests

Came close but no cigar. Was sitting in 13th position with 5 races left but spit the bit.

Oh well, that's what contests are all about.

[tc]

Good showing, Bill. There is almost always at least one capper in these contests so you really need to be on it. I think Eric was on the Tiger horse and ended up in the top 20 or so.

[cherokeescot]

Was leading the BC qualifier for a long time then got bit by a Tiger . Finished 8th out of 101.

[tc]

Nice result, Bev.

Those BCBC qualifiers are especially difficult as they usually require an outright contest win and we all know that means a whole lotta luck is necessary.  This is especially true when somebody else wins. 

[elkurzhal]

ended up 20th. Points should get me close to the top 75 unqualified. TC was last year top 50? do you recall what the cutoff score was?

Nice runs there Bev and Bill. Hang around the top of leader boards enough, and they will start to fall your way!

[tc]

Eric, it was indeed the top 50 unqualified that got to attend the NHC last year. Not sure what the cutoff point total was when all was said and done. With all the changes this year the unqualified point total cutoff is anybody's guess. I still think it will be over 10,000 points but I'm not really sure. Will be interesting to see how it all plays out. Hope you and the family are doing well.

[elkurzhal]

after last weekend I'm at 5533, and 81st on the not qualified list...75th is at 5800 pts. I can still earn 500 in participation points but a couple others on the bubble can also.

probably need two more good finishes at least...

[tc]

Eric, a couple more showings like you had today and you should be in a fine position to get yourself qualified on points.

I suspect that if you are in the top 125 spots on the overall leaderboard at the end of the tour you will get in on points even if you have not won a tourney.

[elkurzhal]

11th in today’s NHC, somewhere around 10,200 points and may crack the top 75 overall. Also picked up a BCBC entry but fell 1 spot short of the $3k buy-in expressbet contest. Would have loved to play that tomorrow, but have a crazy busy day, and haven’t looked at the pps at all, may just watch the Belmont as a fan and take the day off and enjoy the kids ballgames and dinner with pops!

Good luck everyone and remember there are more horse running in the Belmont tomorrow with a chance at the triple crown than the last 50 years combined.

[tc]

great job, eric. you the man!

definitely take the day off on saturday...your kids will enjoy your company and the rest of us tourney players will enjoy not having to deal with your selections!
