SNMX (Long) Senomyx, Inc. Same horse I picked last week; closed at $8.05 I told him it was a 10 day race ... and he needs to do better on the 2nd half. I think he just might. |

Good grief, architecto, what did you do to your horse, bypassed to whole field and nearly 15 lengths into the lead?

Kadee, you'll have to tell me what a hot shot is .....before I can honestly answer your question. And there's two more race days to go; we'll just see what Clark posts late Friday. |

Kadee, you'll have to tell me what a hot shot is .....before I can honestly answer your question. And there's two more race days to go; we'll just see what Clark posts late Friday. A hot shot is sort of like a taser....a long rod that delivers an electrical jolt & is used to get livestock moving through chutes often times...or during steer wrestling events at rodeos...some times those calves don't like to come out so they get a hot shot in the rear and away they go! A little incentive!
Congrats Arch & Mod! Mine was a surprise today for me!

If today's early trends continue, kadee may win the race. Her horse is on a roll this morning.
