Gelding World Cup - Pick Your Trainer Contest - Winners Posted

Post by Laura Ferguson »

This is part 2 of a 3 part contest. The full post on the entire contest can be found here:

viewtopic.php?f=19&t=48881

The first part of the contest can be found here:

viewtopic.php?f=19&t=48967

This part isn't complicated. After looking at the GWC races, pick two trainers with entries in these races and post them here by 11pm Pacific time Monday (W16M post time).Your trainers will receive 7 points for every winner they have, 5 points for every runner up and three points for every third place finisher. If you have the most total points, based on your two trainers' runners, you win. I may add a tie-break question, in case everyone picks the same two trainers. If I do add a tie-break question, it will be posted Tuesday morning (due by results time Wednesday).

Prize is $100,000.

This link contains a few races that don't count, but does include all of those that do count. Basically, anything with GWC in the title, other than the race restricted to Canadian-breds, counts.

I was going to pick, but they would have been the same trainers as Dylan...since they have the most entries more chances to win 🤷‍♀️

Lucas Davenport & Laura Ferguson If that’s even allowed lol

You can pick the same trainers. If everyone ends up picking the same, I'll post a tie break question tomorrow morning.

Closed to additional entries. Since no more than three picked the same combination, I'm not going to bother with a tie break question. If there's a tie (or three-way tie), each winner will get $100,000. Don't forget about the trivia contest, and I'll get the handicapping contest up this morning. Good luck!

This was actually kind of fun scoring. Everyone picked me, so I didn't count. I ended up with 37 points. Several trainers had 28 points, including BOTH George Knatz and Kent Saunders. So, there is actually a four way tie, with Lisa Bennert, Steve Leavitt, Mel Lankford and Gary Prat. Private offer me a junk or pensioned horse for lease for the $100,000 and I will pay you your prize money. Congratulations!
