Anyway back to the original question RHT. I mainly play daily doubles. They seem to give the most bang for my buck especially at Toga and are easier to hit then pick 3's and 4's. The way I play them is 2 horses in one race and a single in the other. I go $20 dd so each bet is $40. I look for nice long shots that can win. Sometimes if you string a few of these together you can really cash in.
This is a good strategy as one hit can carry you a long way. I play 1x3 OR 3x1 where my AxA bet is for 2 units and my AxB tickets are for 1 unit each. When you start using multiple horses in both legs your transaction costs will quickly eat into your winnings.
