Right. It's more of a case of what you THINK Artie's odds will be. If you are convinced that he will go off no lower than 4-5, then you would want the Pinny prop. If you think he will go off at around 3-5, then in doesn't matter much which way you make the bet. If you think he will go off at 1-2 or lower, then you'd want to bet the other horses at the track.

If you don't have an opinion on what Artie will go off at, then this kind of analysis isn't helpful to you.

Anyway, I was interested in your question because I like comparing different ways to make the same bet. If you can make the same bet 2 different ways, this gives you another way to get an edge. See http://www.blackjackforumonline.com/...t/Quinella.htm , for example.
