Thanks again to everyone at Thoro-graph for helping me to finally cash (after going 0 for 6 in Nhc) finished 19th for $18,400.Thorograph made Double Secret in Tampa's 10th a strong contender and in this tourney to contend you need a limit job. Made a run on Sunday to reach 10th but flattened out! Wore the cap proudly when they took my pic but after I fell out of the top ten sure they burned the photo. The usual cast of characters were there with all their noise and bravado. Would recommend to a new qualifier they get a seat in the main room for the pageantry but sitting in the smaller room offers less distractions. But either way it was nice to be in a event where they celebrate the horseplayer. The banquet was (though a touch long) outstanding as they played Steven Crist's introduction at the eclipse awards. Crist let the racing gods know that this game is a niche sport without us players. Nice tribute to Ron Rippey and Mike Mayo who passed away and were inducted into the new handicappers hall of fame (hope its not in a trailer like the old boxing hall of fame)! Thanks again Thoro-graph staff for all you do.
