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.
