With Seely and Marvin looking so good....it's making my 450 picks stressful af!

But I think AC 92 is the way to go all star wise in the 250's, they gave him a 3 handicap. Gotta believe that'll pay points.

Tough week again though!!

I was at the race last week and nearly missed getting my picks in. I must've fat fingered one of my picks because I was using my phone and picked someone that didn't make the main and my other picks were rushed. Somehow, on the easiest week for picks, I scored my worst week.

Hopefully the only where to go from that disaster is up! Going to look at my options now.

I'm going with only one "risky" pick per class: Champion in 250, he should be a lock, then I'm on the Marchbanks and Hayes train, as both guys could possibly be All-Stars by next week. In 450 I could go for Breece or the 722, or Gardner. It is the 722's home race....I could still be enticed by him. Gardner's times aren't impressive but he's a good racer. But Breece looks like he's feeling it. Also taking Chizz this week, Chizz gonna Chizz (I hope). Really want to roll the dice on Savatgy at a 3, but my skin is still healing after getting burned at Glendale. I think I'll take Friese at a 3 and hope for a great start, but Brayton also looks OK at a 1. All-Stars will be Spaz (92) and Kroc.

If I could I'd take Bowers but I had him last week

I'm afraid of AC.
I took Hampshire as an Allstar. He went 4-4-4 so handicap 3 is enough.

Alright Chizz is off my team. The 722 is on in place of Breece and I'm doubling down with relatively safe picks in the MCR-Bullfrog duo of JB and Friese. I really want to roll the dice with Breece and the 722 but my balls won't make it up on to the crossbar Smile

Good luck with Mosiman tonight Langham! I know it is his home race, but he scares me. At -1 I thought Hayes looked better....

Ughh I pulled Brown off last second for Marchbanks. Marchbanks got me okay points but Brown woulda snagged me a few more. And Gardner didn’t make the 450 main ??‍♂️

I had a really good feeling about Decotis after he won the heat race.
Then he says on the podium that he has been sick and that was the first time he rode the bike this week Pinch
