The WINNER for the UNOFFICIAL SUPER BOWL HANDICAPPING CONTEST with a TWIST is??

[DonGuido]

If you can play here's what I got:

Feb 7th, Full race card at Gulfstream (races 1-9) and total points for each Super Bowl Quarter and total points for final score. Here's the format

All race wagers must be exactas not to exceed $4. Wagers like:

$2 ex bx
$2 ex key  (2w/ 5,9) or (2,5w/9)
$4 straight ex

Super Bowl Bonus Dollars for total for each quarter (not cumulative) and then the total for the game. The closest to the points totals in each quarter will get $20, 2nd closest will get $10, 3rd closest will get $5. In case of a tie each will get the same amount. The closest to the total score at the end of thegame will get another $20 added. Of course this is all cyber money since we only do this here for fun.  

ALL WAGERS AND SUPER BOWL POINTS TOTALS A MUST be entered by first post at GSP 1:15 EST.  Of course in case of scratches, you will get the post time favs in order of your picks. Added for clarity sake.

I will total up the wagers and post the order of finish, perhaps by midnight tomorrow, depending on how much and what I consume tomorrow.

ENJOY!!!!

1:  key 5w/6,8
2:  key 1w/7,11
3:  key 1w/5,6

5:  box 2,5
6:  key 1w/5,7
7:  key 3w/1,9

The only exactas that paid after race 3 where by Into the Mystic -

The 6th race 5-8 paid $27.00

For the Superbowl quarter and final score portion we have:

ITM = $45

and the overall winner and order of finish of this crazy contest is:

ITM at $54.60 + $45 =  $99.60
Dapple at $32.20 + $50 = $82.20
Why at $00.00 + $30 = $30
DG at $00.00 + $25 = $25
