in 2001 i had a live pick 3 going into the bc sprint with 3 horses that had the same closing style.
i hedged squirtle squirt as the most likely front running winner and it paid $96.
don't ask why i was betting 3 horses in the last leg with the same style or why i structured pick 3 tickets 3 x 3 x 3. i think i was obsessed with the number 3. or just an idiot.
i think generally if you think you're profitable you shouldn't worry about hedging. you're probably better off making win bets on the longer priced horses in your sequence. that's also a form of hedging.
