We\'re up to 68 guys and they\'re still dribbling in. Over 10% of the field, which is pretty damn impressive.

Up to 70, a record.

Article notwithstanding, Ryan, leader after one day, is ours, not theirs.

Right now 3 of our guys are in the top ten, including 3rd and 4th.

Final count was 72 in the contest, about 1/8th of the field.

If I understand this correctly, Carson and Hart are the two we have at the ten person final table. Three others finished in the top 17.

I thought the audio coverage on Steve Byk\'s website was well done.

Agreed. Listened to about an hour plus of final table coverage.  Excellent job!

NHC winner used only DRF and a pen.

Today, Kasept had Jon White on, who covered this coming week\'s likely Race of the Week, the Risen Star. Jon advertised why the favorite may be a horse not to bet based on Thorograph figures which he called better than the Beyer figures. Sounded obvious that a horse in the race has far better TG numbers than the favorite. . . . . . .

He starts discussing the Risen Star around 36:20.  I\'m sure you will know who he is when you hear his voice.  I am not aware if he is or isn\'t a DRF guy.  \"Thorograph\'s are so much better than the Beyer\'s\" right around 37 minutes.

 That\'s the Jon White , sometime  steward and track handicapper/line maker.

He\'s on all the time.

Kind of faint praise, huh, be better if he said better than the \'other guy\'

Jerry, He has spoken very positively abour your numbers for years. He got the short end of HRTV/TVG Deal, as he got dropped. At HRTV, he always talked up TG, Very pleasant man but dry as sand.  I don’t know about his ability in making a profit at the windows, but He and his wife are walking encyclopedias of horse racing. He was a chart caller to start but has been around the track for decades. He takes pride in the ML and puts hours into it daily and is quite good at it. He should probably replace Travis Stone while SA is closed, but maybe he does DMR.  The point is, it is an endorsement from someone who really knows the game, and has surely compared you to all.

Jon White also mentions this on his Xpressbet column, as well as on the Podcast. He usually mention TG figures in a generic sense, usually not specific as is the case here. It is a standout figure though, and besides who is crazy enough to not use TP in a Derby Prep?
