The English Derby & Oaks (GI) are being run on Saturday at Epsom Downs. On Sunday at Sandown, the Eclipse Stakes (GI) will be contested, with a fantastic field lined up if they all go. The supporting cards are outstanding too.

Select a horse in each race for both days of racing. Each day will have a daily winner, and also a grand total winner for the highest accumulated bankroll over the two days. Bankroll will be based on US returns of $2 win, $2 place (note, they pay first three, sometimes four, in GB). Daily winners will receive a $10 win bet on the opening day card at Saratoga Race Course. Grand total winner gets a $30 Otis Special wager (you select, we split) on the August 1st card at Saratoga, featuring the Whitney and four other stakes. Post your selections in the appropriate thread in the Handicapping Contest section. Non-runners go to the post-time favorite, unless you post a replacement before the races run.

I'll link here to the entries when they are available (Thursday/Friday), and also to PPs for those interested in handicapping the races. Good luck and thanks for following along!
