Thanks, almost,I have had 10 starts, all else is correct. Appreciate your efforts. There always seems to be one contestant whose score I mangle badly, and you happened to be the victim this time 5wide. I looked back at all your selections through the first three days and the scoreboard from Thursday finally reflects the correct numbers. Cautionary tale to others, please check your scores going forward. Everyone else's numbers seemed to be good, BTW. I still need to outsource the tabulating to some high school math wiz... TW

Tom, my 2x was a scratch on Thursday. I see in the rules that I was stuck with the favorite since I didn't put in an alternate, but shouldn't I get my 2x back because of the scratch? Without an objection from another contestant, I'm fine with that.

So I thought about how to handle this issue, and came to this conclusion: Once you've made your picks, it would be your responsibility to edit a scratched horse before the first race post time, including a "2X" horse (and/or you could remove the "2X" designation). However, Trueshan was a very late post-time scratch, so you didn't have that recourse. You definitely inherit the favorite as your selection by the rules. But as there was nothing explicit in the rules about a scratched "2X" selection (because I don't stay up late thinking of all the possibilities, just most of them ), I think it is fair to you, and not unfair to others, to get your 2X back. I would treat any similar cases the same way, although now that there is only one day left, that point is moot. Your "pardon from the Governor" is approved. TW
