A 5x7 photo of Lookin at Lucky will be given to the (ONE) winner who can correctly pick the "cold" exacta (1 & 2) for the Breeder's Cup Classic on November 6, 2010. Here is the photo...http://www.flickr.com/photos/easygoer/4851787478/
RULES:
To keep this legitimate and from getting out of control...I will accept 50 "picks" so after post# 51 (can't count this one as a pick) the selections will not be honored. Also you must have at least 100 posts to qualify for the contest (protect from spamming) and you can only make one exacta selection. In case of a tie or multiple exacta winners...put the final time (utilizing hundredths) after your exacta selection and the winner of the Exacta with the closest Final Time (doesn't matter if its over or under) will win. If no one has the exacta but they have the winner then that in conjunction with the final time will win. The contest starts now and the last "pick" will either be post# 51 or 12PM EST, on November 6, 2010, which ever comes first. Good Luck.Any questions please PM me rather than use the thread so i can keep a legitimate count.
Please use the following format.
Win: Name
Place: Name
*Tie Breaker* Final Time: 02:01:25 (EXAMPLE)I will PM the winner to get all the pertinent info after the contest.

Because I missed the time cut off, and because there haven't been 50 responses yet, I'm going to pull rank here and extend this contest until five minutes before the official Equibase OFF time for this race. If your reply is postmarked after that, it doesn't count.
Jason can choose to override my decision, but I think it's an ok idea...as long as there are less than 50 replies thus far and as long as the picks are posted before the race goes off, doesn't it really change anything?
My picks:
1) Quality Road
2) Espoir City

No one had the exacta but three had Blame. Out of the three, "On the Rail" had "202.1" for time. If you interpret that as either 2:02.10 or 2:02.20 using the 1/5th system it is still closer than "Bubbles" time of 2:02.56. So I am declaring "On the Rail" the winner. Great try by all. Will do it a again in the near future. ----------Final time by the way was 2:02.28
