Thanks for the kind comments guys, but I'm afraid that I was not successful in a final day's shot at first. To gain ground on a leader, you need to make different picks, and since the leader in the wins category was picking horses that were scratched so that he would scratch into the post time favorite, I needed to choose horses that had a shot but that I thought would NOT be the fav. That didn't work out for me over the last couple of days. Couldn't gain the necessary ground. I'll write it off to a learning experience and move on. The technique used by the winner was effective and good games strategy, but not my idea of handicapping. Perhaps that's the way the game needs to be played - but not for me.
TC, a huge congrats to you on your 2nd in the Challenge. Doing so well in such a long endurance contest is a real handicapping accomplishment.

thanks, Dell & JolyB.
Glad I was able to continue this board's success at the MTH survivor challenge.
Congrats to JolyB on a great effort in picking winners @ MTH.
Congrats to you too, Dell. That was a fantastic showing @ HT today.

Congratulations JolyB and TC. It absolutely does take a lot of time and handicapping skill to do what you both did.
