Well done by the way. I'm kicking myself for not picking Paul Harvey's ride in R6. Damn.

that was the only reason i backed it!!! i don't have much of an idea about Western races :D

i've just fixed up the Xcel file -

oh and it is interesting to note that you backed Umber's Halo for $10 E/W and got a return of $25, whereas anyone who backed it $20 Win only got $24 back...caution pays!!!

Oh and if anyone was wondering we are using racetab dividends (or whatever their new name is!

Well, like the one in R7, I was very confident it would place, but not so confident it would win. Wasn't expecting a dead heat though. :)

weren't you...wow...i thought there was a dead heat on the cards for certain :D

Well there are no group races on this weekend HOW EXCITING. I'm anything but gruntled with that...i might turn into an agelast if this continues...howerver i've got arithomania so i'll tally up the scores once more...i might go back into my batrachophagus habits to pass the time

i'll leave it up to you guys to guess what those other 3 mean!

Okay, this is JUST PLAIN SPOOKY.

Was anybody by any chance watching the new episode of "The Simpsons" which was on just now. If not, I won't bother going into the story or anything, but I just heard Homer say something like this:

"Okay Sir, now I am disgruntled. Up until now I have been relatively gruntled".

As I said, SPOOKY!

yeah i saw it...i love that show...but i didn't say anything because Survivors on!!!

i'm glad stephanie got through

any luck on those words? ;)
