$1,000,000 Derby Week Contest

[Danny Derby]

It's Louisville Derby week and I haven't given away cash in nearly half a sim year, so I'm putting up another ONE MILLION DOLLARS in prize money to the top handicappers the SIM has to offer. I'm offering prizes to the top three finishers, as well as a special bonus that only new players are eligible for.

RULES:

Select TWO horses from each race in the list below
Horses that finish first will earn you 3 points, second 2 points, and third 1 point.
Pick the top two finishers for a race and you'll get a 5 point bonus.
You MUST post your selections in the order of the races listed below (makes sorting this all out easier)
Spell the horses names correctly! This will also make it much easier.
The deadline to enter is at the start of the Derby Broadcast on Friday.
Do NOT edit your posts after the deadline. If you want to make a change, make sure it's before the deadline. Late edits will be disqualified!

PRIZES:

1st. $500,000
2nd. $200,000
3rd. $100,000

Most points by a New or Junior player: $200,000 (and if they finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd, you get that cash plus the $200k bonus!)

Desert Turf Sprint
Dubai Millennium Mile
Desert Duty Free
Desert Golden Sprint
Desert Mile
Scott Eiland Memorial Desert Marathon
