Anyone handicapping Saturday? Also, has anyone had experience with the Ladder contest by Twinspires? There isn't a lot to go by as how many wins usually takes the "cake". I know they did a recent 10k ladder and the winner took $5000Plus. I am guessing they were they only one that had 7 wins and got the full $5000 at the top, but if they hadn't done that it seems like your winnings are slim especially if you are splitting tiers with hundreds of punters.

Any information will help.

Happy Punting. I will put some of my handicaps in here for tomorrow. I look for top four containment and I expect the winner to come from my top four rankings. Scratches will change the rankings. So this is pre scratch.

Thanks all. Up to 5 wins in the Twinspires' Ladder contest. Trying to hit 7 with 3 races left. I will post 12 and 13 handicap.

[mrnickel]

Up to six wins in the Ladder contest. Two races left. IMO, don't know if I would do this contest again bc you don't know where you are. I will let my handicapping stand for Race 12, but if I don't win, I may just bet all on Race 13 to get the 7th qualifying win for the total $50,000 purse.

Was this handicapped using RDSS?

Was this handicapped using RDSS?


Partially. Yes. I say that because I have my own inputs as well. I missed one or two things today. As I have mentioned to Ted many times, I need to get on here more often. The knowledge here is extremely valuable, IMO, and I have much to learn.
