Good News & Bad News today!

.
Well it's been a day of high & lows! First the bad news.

In the Hawthorne Contest 3rd race I played the #11
He pulled up b4 the quarter pole for unknown reasons.
I think the rules should state if your horse does not even run the race or cross the finish line, you should get a mulligan. IMHO.

So I am Out in the 1st day of competition. Oh Well ...
Can't handicap that kind of thing!

At the Who do you Like contest I had the lead until about the mid stretch & faded to run out.
I am still in decent shape there however to make a run yet. I am in 31st (tied) place now!
