Cal,
What is the trick for adding more than 2 runners in the exacta box? I have only seen two boxes pop up for ex box.

It's a bit tedious, but with a 3 horse box you have of course 6 different combinations. Using my example say I bet a 3,6,7 box, if I box them I only have to bet 3 times like this:

3-6 box ( is 3-6 and 6-3)
3-7 box ( is 3-7 and 7-3)
6-7 box ( is 6-7 and 7-6)

I think with a 4 horse bet you would have 12 different combinations, therefore requiring 6 boxed bets.

4 horse box you have to punch in 6 boxed bets

My head would explode :zz::eek::D

..understood, I plugged in my boxes like that, thought you may have found a simpler way, thanks for the reply Cal, good luck!!

Thanks. Didn't get me much of a return. Played way too many runners to come in second. Should have doubled up on the two I liked best. Hind sight 20/20.:rolleyes::D Story of the races.

Contest seems to be indicating that it closed for today's entries at 3:30 am this morning. Think somebody just put in the wrong closing time (am instead of pm).
Sent "Chris" an email. Hopefully, he or she will correct this.
