Default Brooklyn Belmont Consolation Double

Do they give a consolation double or do I get the post-time favorite?

Isn't it usually a consolation double in the amount of the winner from the Brooklyn?

There is a consolation double.....was posted on NYRA.com


Considering you had a 2-1 shot to the 2nd favorite in The Belmont and are so concerned about a payoff of a consolation double that is going to pay a miniscule amount , NYRA will be fed exing you a flowered blouse to wear today as a consolation.

The conso DD will probably pay about 6 or 7 dollars.

Actually I am paying out of my pocket before it hits my account and am trying to figure out how much to pay out. I am playing bookie for a bunch of people this weekend that don't have an account and don't usually bet horses. Doing my part to bring in fans. Can't say the same for you.

Worried your double wheel wasn't such a great bet?
