but i heard steve say the other day on his show that he felt that pick fours offered the best value...so i've set a new goal for myself.

well, that was long-winded. congrats again on the hit, the first of many i hope!
The F'd up thing is I caught the pneumonia after I hit. I've had a nagging cold for a few months and it finally caught up with me. Last week was hell but I feel much better now.

Multi race wagers are very tough. You could be dead on in multi legs and be off on one leg. I like the rolling doubles as a backup. It's helped my bankroll stay afloat many times. The pick 4 is great value if you beat favorites especially a heavy favorite. I've also noticed that hitting a nice priced horse ($15 or above) in leg 1 leads to decent prices.
