Actual Betting Favorite in a Pick 4?

[Holland Hacker]

Does anybody know where I can get the amount of $ wagered on each horse in a race.

On Saturday I started the Late Pick 4 at Saratoga using the 1,3,7 and 10. After the fact I learned that the 3 was a late scratch and under the NY rules I received the Actual Betting favorite as a substitution. When I looked at the chart in DRF it is showing that the 7 was the actual betting favorite as indicated by the "*" next to the 2.5:1.

However when I checked my balance I was not credited for a $2 win on the play only a $1. I was told by NYRA that the favorite was in fact the #1 by a few dollars and not the #7.

Any idea's as to where I can verify who was the actual betting favorite or do I have to take NYRA's word over the printed chart in the DRF?

I don't know where (If anywhere) you can look it up, but I know for a fact that the winner wasn't the actual favorite. I was keeping a really close eye on it because I was hoping the horse who ran second would end up being PT fave to keep those w/ the late scratches on him only to realize after the race that PK3 players get consos in the last leg.

Thanks for the info. Bummer but thanks.

I'll give you 2 .

1 for the score
1 for the most clever redboard I've seen delivered on these parts

I knew someone would bring up the redboarding but at least I was cleaver about. In my defense I almost put a disclaimer in my original post about not wanting to be accused of redboarding but figured that would lead to more comments on that subject.

Thanks but I was expecting it to be 2X that when I called sunday to place my wagers.

I was thinking I was set for the rest of the Saratoga meet. Now I need another good score to get me through the meet.
