[CONTEST] Penultimate Picks
Posted: Thu Oct 14, 2021 3:25 am
I'm in the mood for bad financial management, but oh no, there is no pick 6 open for betting!
Here are six major races tonight, the penultimate night of stew in our cups. We're going with a ladies' theme.
1. SC Filly Turf Dash
2. SC Juvenile Fillies Sprint
3. SC Juvenile Fillies Turf
4. SC Debutante
5. SC Bunburette
6. SC Juvenile Fillies
I will give $150,000 to whoever correctly picks the most winners in these races. Each person gets one guess per race, you may edit your guess up until the contest closes, but you may not cover your bases with multiple guesses. If there is a tie, the prize will be split as evenly as math allows. Shannon gets to play to defend her money too - if I get the most correct picks, I keep my cash and breed pretty babies with it
Bonus: if one of my runners in these races wins, I will borrow from those earnings to double the prize pot for this contest, making it $300,000. If both of my runners win, I will up it to $500,000. My money is feeling very safe right now, but what's life without a little extra spice now and then?
Contest closes when broadcast goes live, or one hour before race results if the broadcast happens to be canceled. Good luck!
Update- thanks to generous donations by Carole Hanson, the base pool has been upped by 350k to a $500,000 total! If a Carole-owned horse wins an SC tonight (colt races included!) she will donate an additional $250k, so up to an additional $750k if all three of hers win. This stacks with my bonus prizes of course.
