9/29/18 Belmont Late PK4/PK5
 

This is why i tend to avoid Belmont/NY racing.

Late PK 5
7) $2.40
8) $12.00
9) $10.80
10) $93.00
11) $10.00

Comes back for $14,899

Admittedly i don't know how to do the parlay multiplier, but just taking into consideration the large wagering day, you got 3 horses paying over $10 to win, all beat odds on favorites, and you throw in an impossible $93.00 horse to win the feature and this $0.50 wager can't even crack $5K? Considering all the above factors, anywhere outside of NY this pays 5-figures, IMO.

For me, NY Racing is just too smart.

Discreet Lover was 15-1 when the bets were placed and if you threw out the race before was right in the mix if you felt Diversify was beatable. I didn't see the races Saturday and didn't play so was shocked when I saw that horse paid $93. I imagine it was on more tickets then expected. That being said no favorites won any of the 4 races coupled with that so I would have been wanting lots more if I hit that.

Well, the P5 was essentially a P4 given Imperial Hint's presence.

I absolutely agree with that, but isn't that wager limited to NYRA Bets? Which is a much smaller wagering pool.

Like Tom said, if by some stroke of quick-pick luck i had that PK4, i would be salty with that return. It's almost like the smarts up there have every angle covered and the prices reflect it.

People like myself pump daily. It's that smart money.

Post of the year!!:tro:

P4 Parlay was $3,766.50 for .50, so it paid 127%. That's low, but not absurd. The average P4 pays about 2.5x the parlay.
