My best suggestion is if you like a horse that is double digits, bet it to win/place and be happy with the result, or press it with an exacta. If it's less than 10-1 pick 3's (or even doubles) make sense.

![]() I recall reading somewhere that the P3's average in excess of 1K on a dollar ticket. How is that a bad bet?

![]() On this day or 2 days, its far and away the best bet. Its not even close. Chalk-Chalk-Chalk is an overlay most times because of the large fields and huge pools.

![]() The P6 averages six figures on a $2 ticket... it's all relative...

However, what I think you are getting at, would betting Zenyatta or Goldikova win PLUS place this year be a poor wager? Of course.

There was a thread, probably 3 or 4 years ago that dealt with something like this. The gist of it was it was better finacially to just put your horse under the favorite than bet the horse to place. Last edited by Dahoss : 10-26-2010 at 02:43 PM. |

I know you have no desire to look at other ways of doing things, but some might. Say you like a horse and are going to bet $20 win/place. You're better off playing $25 or $30 to win and then using the rest playing your horse second in exactas. I used to bet win/place, but I almost never do anymore. |

I realize you know why, but for those that don't, it's just takeout dispersion.

![]() My bad, that was what I meant. That's what I get for trying to do more than one thing at a time.

![]() ![]() As usual 80% of my handle will be Win, Doubles, and exactas. Plenty of ![]() I'm am just not comfortable putting $100-200 into tri's,supers, and p3's on multiple races. I might play a $200 p4 if I really like a sequence and think I can beat a heavy fav. Id' love to make a DrugS like score this year. |
