Cal, great minds must think alike.
I was tempted to try a Railbow 6 ticket, but after looking at the sequence of races, realized that the only way I could do so was to either go partners with another couple of players, or ask Real Quiet for an advance on several future ROI bankrolls. I don't think that our rules permit either of those far fetched ideas, appealing though they might be.
Out of curiousity, what sized bankroll would you consider adequate to give you any confidence with a ticket on this sequence? I tried a very rough approach (without breaking my picks into the A's and B's) and came up with a ticket costing about $750. That didn't really cover any of the "what if's", just the "this one has a realistic chance's". Even at $0.20 per pop, adding just one more to a race gets very expensive very quickly.
