2025 Breeders' Crown Finals - Handicapping Contest!!
Quote from talkinghorse on October 23, 2025, 10:43 AMThere were SO many great elimination races last weekend at Woodbine Mohawk Raceway, and now we have the potential for even greater finals!Ā Of course, that means that we need a handicapping contest of even greater proportions than any we have ever had!
Both programs are attached.
Here's how to enter:
- You will pick TWO horses from Friday's Breeders' Crown eliminations.Ā They can be any two horses, heck, if you want, they can even be from the same race.Ā But, you must pick TWO from the Friday program, and they have to come from the Finals races (not other races on the card).
- You will pick FOUR horses from Saturday's Breeders' Crown Finals races as above, but two more.
How you will earn points:
- If your horse finishes first, you will earn the $2.00 Win, Place, and Show payouts.
- If your horse finishes second, you will earn the $2.00 Place and Show payouts.
- If your horse finishes third, you will earn the $2.00 Show payout.
- If your horse is scratched or declared a non-starter, you will be credited with $6.00 for that entry.
The winner will be the person who accumulates the most money.
There is no prize aside from bragging rights.Ā Though @lonnie is crowing like a Rooster!Ā Now is the chance to knock him off his roost!
Please post all
fiveSIX of your selections in one post in this thread before 6:00 PM ET on Friday.Good luck to everyone.

Quote from pcmark15 on October 24, 2025, 1:45 PMFriday-On Heir (Longshot), Apex
Saturday-Date Night Hanover, R Dutchess, Crack Shot, Ken Hanover
As a long time bettor I'd have a hard time putting any real money on most of these races. luckily these picks are just for bragging rights. Good luck to everyone.
edit-Good luck to Gorgeous Package in the 5th, she's in tough and the rail probably isn't the best spot for her.
