Pick 3 time

You'll kick yourself if a longshot wins the first leg, English Channel does not win the Turf, and Bernardini wins the Classic.

Another wager of note on Breeders' Cup day is the superfecta. If you really like the favorite, put it in the first spot. Find a "hinge" horse that you will use in the other spots, and mix in a handful for the other two positions (with the key and the hinge horses).

Some of these supers are... super.

The thing is is that I wont be going so deep that I get a longshot in the first two legs. For a $48 ticket, I think the risk of taking a stand against Bern is better than taking a stand against EC. I agree with what you are saying but I am willing to take the risk.
