    Well, I'll send this off now, just in case the power goes out,
    or the creek rises.
    Meanwhile think more about who is most likely to react best
    to cold temps and new track.

    "honest injun." Uhh Huh. Okay.

    Although locking down an 8 point advantage with only 2 races to
    go by duplicating, seems a logically wise way to do the pool.
    Since all it leaves open with 2 races to go, is only a very
    theoretical opening to the one back 12, and the rest back 16
    or more.

    Our picks at this stage are not looking very bountiful.
    But I'm not seeing anybody in reach is really trying
    a "Hail Mary" long shot with high odds.
