![]() Your wording on a couple of the questions was pretty poor.
For instance, in question #1, even though I think I understood what you were trying to ask, the way the question was worded, well, obviously $48 for $2 is greater than even money. #2. If a Moss pt is 2.73 Bsf pts, then rest assured, a 72 Moss would be much higher than 43ish. |

"A Moss Pace Figure of 56 is equal to a Beyer figure of 0. A Moss Pace figure of 100 is equal to a Beyer figure of 120.12 Each Moss Pace figure point is equal to 2.73 Beyer Points. A Moss Pace figure of 72 equals a Beyer figure of what? A) 38.22 B) 43.68 C) 82.18 D) 91.44" A Moss Pace Fig of 56 equals a Beyer of 0. A Moss Pace Fig of 57 equals a Beyer of 2.73 58 = 5.46 59= 8.19 60= 10.92 61= 13.65 72= 43.68 100 = 120.14 The Moss scale was setup that way so horses didn't run a bunch of negative figures in slower paced races. |

"1. Willyconker wins and pays $23.00 to win. 0.80-to-1 favorite Mr Commons finishes 2nd. The $2 exacta returns $48.00 True or false -- people who bet Willyconker to win could have had better than even money odds on Mr. Commons beating the remainder of the field for 2nd place in an exacta wager?" People who bet Willyconker to win recieved $23 for $2. If Mr. Commons was exactly even money odds to beat the remainder of the field for 2nd place ... the exacta would have paid exactly $46.00 |

![]() Here is the question:
5. Boldly wins the first leg of the pick 3 and pays $25.00 - Sing It Again wins the second leg and pays $10.00 - Tap'n My Toes wins the third leg and pays $60.00 What would the 3-race win parlay pay? A.) $3,750 B) $15,000 C) $7,500 D) $95.00 If you bet $2 to win on Boldly you would get $25.00 If you bet that $25 to win on Sing It Again ... $25 on a 4/1 shot gets you back $125 If you bet $125 to win on Tap'n My Toes ... a $125 win bet on a horse who pays $60 gets you $3,750 Thus, the answer is A. |
