ROUX IS RUNNING THE KENTUCKY DERBY THIS YEAR

SFP is deferring to the expertise of Roux.

Pickle, I'm glad to see your interest in horse racing. Fun sport.

But I suggest you do the contest differently. I have run contests on the boards, and suggest that you do it as I did last year. Here is the thread, and we did a triple crown challenge, who did the best over the three races. Here are the final results, and props again to Smackie Chan for winning the contest last year.

As you know, at the end of the race, the results will be posted and will look like this:



The payouts are based upon a standard $2 bet.

So if the contest is just listing who you think will be the top 3 finishers, it will be easier for both the people who enter the contest, as well as scoring the contest.

Pickle, we had 4 contests. One for the Kentucky Derby, which Seer won.

Another for the Preakness (won by Seer and me), another for the Belmont (won by Smackie and Biggie).

And as they do at the tracks, there was an overall winner for the Triple Crown, which was Smackie.

[HighPlainsGrifter]

What I'm noticing from that list is Kluba didn't win a goddam thing.

That makes two of us, Grifter. You were a Dornoch away from the cellar.

I'll pick a stable this year. Think I'll wait for the official Roux contest and take a pass on Pickle's bullshit.

Smackie Chan must be stopped.

Roux runs the horses around these parts, and it is his to run the official t1b contest, like last year.

This thread may be fun for practice or fukking around but that's all. Or it may go away. Suddenly.

Or it may go away. Suddenly.

You knowm, it is kinda interesting to me, insofar as I was given to trepidation style light treading on eggshells on just a couple of boards, what SPB's POV is like. I experienced the full freedom of theventonline on the one side, and the brutal atmosphere of Democratic underground on the opposite. But for FSB, "screen of death" imminent at all times, on most venues, must get old.

Eh, Bahala na.

[Smackie Chan]

Not waiting over 1 month for the triple crown.

I agree. Let's just ban you now.

Okay, you can run the contest.

I was only trying to make sure there was something to do for the Kentucky derby.

It's all yours.
Do what you want to do.

Oh my God stop crying.

[Donnie Baker's Ghost]

1. Citizen Bull (20-1) Citizen Cane meets Bull Durham? Not feeling it.

2. Neoequos (30-1) Sounds like crypto. I'll throw $100 at it

3. Final Gambit (30-1) Sequel to the Queen's Gambit? It will suck.

4. Rodriguez (12-1) Playing outfield for the Red Sox?

5. American Promise (30-1) Murica! Fuck yeah!

6. Admire Daytona (30-1) Well son of a beach!

7. Luxor Cafe (15-1) Bullshit. I'm going to the Luxor for the buffet, not the cafe.

8. Journalism (3-1) Guaranteed to win. Any reports to the contrary are fake news

9. Burnham Square (12-1) "What is the volume of a trilby cylinder if the Burham Square is 1.123."
Sin, Mikey quiz, probably.

10. Grande (20-1) Is this the uncut stud who killed that Microsoft guy with his raging cock? I know Pikkle remembers that story.

11. Flying Mohawk (30-1) Cultural appropriation? In this economy?

12. East Avenue (20-1) Got my first handy on the East Ave bus. Good times*.

13. Publisher (20-1) Journalism won the race. Print it or we stop advertizing. -Phizer

14. Tiztastic (20-1) Thafuq? Does Lil Wayne own this thing

15. Render Judgement (30-1) There's more profit in rendering the fat from the whales in ridiculous hats milling around the gallery. Oops that sounded judgy.

16. Coal Battle (30-1) Burn, baby, burn.

17. Sandman (6-1) Exit light...

18. Sovereignty (5-1) Leave me alone.

19. Chunk of Gold (30-1) At 30-1, more like Stack of Nope

20. Owen Almighty (30-1) Fuck all the way off. No way they're making you the new pope.


* plot twist. It was my hand.

[Kluba]

RACK DBG. That’s good shit.

11. Flying Mohawk (30-1)

$100 on Lip to Win.

Won 2 of 3 races and wasn't overall winner?


***INQUIRY***

[Roux]

I posted detailed results in each thread, Seer.

You're welcome to review it, and if I made a mistake, then I'll admit it and make the correction.

[Smackie Chan]

Rack DBG!

the new pope

Have you run into Frankie up there? Or are you in a different zip code?

Smackie Chan must be stopped.

You can only hope to contain him.

[bungle clone]

Rack DBG!

RACK DBG.

This thread....may go away. Suddenly.

Having considered the matter further, for a whole minute, cuz obvious don't need long to recognize, it is clear that DBG's thread rescue post is one of the best evah.

I've started looking but haven't made my picks yet.

And whatever I say here, I'm going to actually bet at https://www.twinspires.com/

So how's this gonna go down, Roux? Start a Triple Crown thread! Chop chop!

I sent a private message to Roux and told him to run the race and he told me to go ahead and do the Kentucky Derby.

I don't care who runs it as long as somebody runs it.

[Roux]

Pickle, I have received private messages requesting the same format as last year, so please let's do that.

Simply list your predicted finish of the top three horses. It will be assumed that all bets are $2, so that we will calculate the T1B winner with the posted results from the track. Same as last year.

The results from each race will be listed, with the overall total being declared the winner of the T1B Triple Crown Challenge. Same as last year.

Just use this thread to make your picks.


==========================================


Separate and apart from that, Pickle yes I'll do your version as well.

Either way, my $100 will do better than Roux or Smackie!

The only problem is that you don’t know what the fuck you are doing.

Plessy versus Ferguson was overturned by Brown versus Board of Education. You can't have that separate but equal bad stuff in the whole world, solar system, Milky Way and even Paradise. Plus, the matter involved Negroids in some manner, which Piffle clearly identifies as.

Bad Roux.

Damnit! Rodriguez was scratched. I had him in my top 3. Bob Baffert has another horse, Citizen Bull, but I don't think he is as strong as Rodriguez.

So with that scratch, Baeza joins the race, and that will change some bets. Baeza has a strong pedigree -- a half brother to 2023 Kentucky Derby winner Mage and 2024 Belmont Stakes winner Dornoch -- plus he placed in the Santa Anita Derby, and has some fast workouts.

Edit: Grande is also scratched by the track vet, and the owner isn't happy.
