I don't think you can have any set rules other than a $$$ amount you want to spend on a sequence. For conversation sake lets say $36. I try to find a race that I have a strong opinion on a short priced favorite I like and a horse I think can win under the right situation. Depending on he other races I might go 4x3x2 for $1. Than I will back up my original ticket with a larger ticket for $2-$5 often singling the short priced favorite. If my opinion is correct I cash the bigger ticket and if my 2nd choice beats the short priced horse it often pays very well.

I have found what races I do better on are main track races that don't have a ton of 1st time starters. I try to find sequences that have at least 2 of these races. That is why I started a thread earlier this week looking for a few good resources for pedigree help because I really struggle with 1sters
