In fairness, the Pick 5 payout was fairly weak at $360 and Steve should have gotten back $36 in consolation payouts at least.
When I first saw Steve’s grid, I was surprised to see him so deep in the Jenny Wiley and relatively thin in the Shakertown. In hindsight, even though he got beaten by a nose in the Shakertown, that was a reasonable way to approach it. If he nabs the 10 in that race and Jolie Olimpica held on in the Jenny Wiley, probably a much nicer payout than $360. But what can you do? This game is tough.
Edit: I wasn’t looking at the CC or Pick 4. That is definitely tough but still think the strategy would have paid off much more with a little luck.
Also - does Keeneland not have a camera at the finish line? I don’t think I ever saw a photo of that finish.
