ALL w/ ALL ??
 

What are the chances with this wacky Derby that the exacta will pay 1K or more on a $400 investment?

Poor

Disagree. I think there's a good chance it does.

It's actually a $380 investment, and I think there's at least a 50% chance of you showing a profit.

I'm thinking over a grand as well.

I don't know if the risk is worth the reward. Or something.

I think most of the lower priced horses will run their races minus SC so its not for me.

What about all/all with the Oaks-Derby double, that's only a $280 investment and all you need is Blind Luck to get beat. That could be a huge payoff

$280 is for a buck. The DD would have to pay $560 to just break even... there are some throwouts

Im betting All/1,2/1,2 in the derby triple a nice little $36 investment!

i think this is a good bet this year...im throwing around the idea...i will toss stately victor to save $20 bucks....think he has 0% chance on hitting the board

For a 1$ bet. 20X19X1

760 for a 2....Pass

What chance do you give of Lookin At Lucky running either first or second?

you do know the average payout for the last 10 years is something like $1500 bucks right?

I think you can toss the turf horses at least.

Yes, the median would be a better example here. You expect a Giac/Clos Arg exacta here? (That was what 9 grand or something) Quite a skew.

It may not be worth it in the exacta but buying a free square in the exotics has been very very good to me over the years in this race and the Preakness.

To get the benefit though you have to spend some money. Last year

All/1,2,15,16/1,2,15,16 paid 20K for $1 which I was lucky enough to have twice. Buying a wheel in these pools can be very very rewarding if you have a little luck and some knowledge that fills.

Thats a good idea... though All/1,2 exacta box might have a bigger chance of scoring.

I never quite understood wheeling horses underneath only. Especially in a 20-horse field, how do you determine that certain horses are good enough to run second, but not win?

I agree.
