First Saturday in May. I may be in NY, but my heart is in Kentucky!!!!!!
Time for our Annual Chipboard Kentucky Derby handicapping Contest! Here are the rules:
1. Open to all
2. You have a $20 virtual dollars to wager on the Kentucky Derby any way you like, as long as all your bets are limited to the 11th race at Churchill Downs tomorrow, so if you have a great tip on the 10th race, you can't use it here, because Daily Doubles, Pick 3's etc. are not allowed. Win, Place, Show, Exactas, Trifectas, Quinellas, wheeling horses, all good.....just limit the total of all your wagers to $20, and to the Kentucky Derby. If you go over $20 in bets, the sequential bet that put you over (and any other bets after it) will be voided.
3. To avoid confusion, please sse the NAME of the Horse(s) you want, for example:
$5 Exacta Box Pioneer of the Nile/Advice
$10 Win Desrt Party
