Low Scores Mean Big Returns for Chute – Again (Weekend Recap, Dec. 17-18)
If George Chute were an NBA player, he’d probably be one of those (increasingly rare) guys with a very good mid-range jumper.

Weekend Recap (Dec. 2-4)
It was an exciting three days here at HorseTourneys with some closing weekend stakes at Del Mar helping to decide a number of the featured competitions on Saturday and Sunday.
Our $5,000 Guaranteed game on Friday went to David Sullivan who prevailed over Brisnet’s Ed DeRosa. The runner-up finish was hardly a disappointment for DeRosa, who has been playing the races enthusiastically for most of his life but only began playing tourneys a year or two ago.

Our first of several qualifiers for that event will be held this Sunday. But before we take a look forward to the weekend ahead, let’s take a quick look back to yesterday.
