Default What would you do with a $10,000 SPA bankroll?

Betting strategy question...

You are given $10,000 to bet at Saratoga in an attempt to make money for 200 people who are lucky enough to be a part of it.

Would you ever bet $100 to win on a 5-2 shot?

Would you make bets that attempt to make meaningful money for the lucky recipients? Or would you make pick four plays that go 3 x 4 x 1 x 3, singling a 1-5 shot in the middle?

I wouldn't, personally, but I'm not in this situation. My opinion, however, is that you should feel obligated to pursue big scores with decent prices in an attempt to gain exponential returns by doubling, tripling, or going even better than that. Thoughts?
