Don't have time for a post-script, but buying of races, like using 5 or maybe 6 in the 1st, is central to what I suggested regarding the 2 sequences going in and why I was more forcused on the P6. Narrow in the 3rd/5th and wider in the 1st/2nd/4th was obviously the preferable structure but making that call now with a $30 ticket is easy and nothing says the 2nd or 4th go your way with 'just' 4 & 3. What I didn't want to do or suggest was spending 'P6 money' trying to hit the P5.
