What do you do with a pick 4 that has what will be a prohibitive favorite? If you include her with a bunch of others and she wins, the payoff may be smaller than your bet.... if you leave her out and she wins you feel like a fool..... if you key her and she gets beaten, you miss out on a boxcar payoff. Add to that the FOY where Hidden Scroll might either be a monster or an overhyped maiden winner and we won't know until the race is run. Is a puzzlement. But, I've got to play my ticket based on the way I think the races will be run, and that's the conclusion that Jaywalk has the field over a barrel but the FOY could go either way. If that conclusion is wrong, I'll be tearing up a lot of tickets.

Here goes with an all graded stakes pick 4

Race 11:
$2 Pick 4: 1,2,9,10 // 1 // 7 // 4,6,8,11 ($32)
$1 Pick 4: 1,2,9 // 1 // 1,4,5,8 // 4,6,8,11 ($48)
$1 Pick 4: 1,9 // 1 // 4,5,7 // 4,6,11 ($18)

Total: $32 + $48 + $18 = $98

Good luck to all and thank you to Real Quiet for scoring.
