In fact, that race was just one exhibit in the fascinating demonstration I put on today at Arlington Park entitled:
"How to turn decent handicapping into absolutely NO MONEY!!!"

Don't worry Miraja, I took the cake today at Monmouth in that category. I played the 50 cent P5 (which had a small carryover), and the first race in the sequence was scratched down to a 4 horse field of which only 3 had any ability. I liked the 2nd choice and played a $1 combo totalling $200 ticket starting with him, and went back and forth on whether to use the other two; finally I compromised and only used the 3rd choice in a 50 cent $16 ticket with my "A" horses in every other leg (so it would have been $16 more to include the 4/5 favorite in that secondary ticket.)
Needless to say, the 4/5 won by about a length, and I had all the other legs on the $16 ticket... and the P5 paid $4600 for a buck.
