Toga Party - Part Deux

Tweet My alma mater didn't have fraternities or sororities, so some of the boys decided to start their own "unofficial" frat house called TKB. They had the letters made up and placed on their "off campus" house as well as t-shirts etc etc. TKB = Tap a Keg of Beer (and mammoth toga parties). Since I was the Anheuser-Busch rep for the college (best college job EVER) I was a popular fellah with the boys from TKB to say the least, as I was key to the K portion of their fraternity.

Anyways, we're a week away from Saratoga's opening day, and we had some fun last year with my made for blog contest with no prizes that we're gonna bring it back and spiff it up a bit. I've broken it down to 5 meet questions, 5 race or raceday specific questions and 5 winners of major stake races. Instead of having to guess who's running in the Travers in July, you can make your selection for the races no later than the Friday before the race. I will have the spreadsheet up and running on the right margin before I leave for opening day. Remember there's no Price is Right rules in effect (you can go over - it's closest to the correct number). Either email me: budmanbflo[at]hotmail.com your selections for the first 10 items and the tiebreaker or leave them in the comment section. So here goes (open to all, we don't discriminate here in Space Land):

Meet questions
1) Leading Trainer
2) # of Wins - Leading Trainer
3) Leading Jockey (wins)
4) # of Wins - Leading Jockey
5) Total turf races for entire meet
