Steve - Ten minutes from post time at Santa Anita for the last race - saw that your Pick-4 tickets are alive to the 3 and 5 for $1K+ and $2K+. At this point, do you hedge any of your tickets with other bets or do you stand pat?

(Have always wanted to discuss this on the radio show with you.)

Scott,

I don't.. It's been a very good afternoon and I'm up no matter what happens, so I won't be suicidal if the 3 or 5 don't win. The only time I've 'bought insurance' is when live to 5 figure payoffs. You do it if you feel like you won't be able to sleep if you come away with nothing...

Congrats Steve! Curious as to what your other bets consist of. Do you roll pick 3's, play doubles, or play exacta's and tri's.

Thanks! I play P3's and tri keys. With a longshot play like Awesome Prospect I'll play to win and in addition to exotic keys, I'll backwheel them in exactas with logicaqls (and sometimes 'all') and utilize the Ken Karchner 'reverse tri key' with the price play third under 4 or 5 horses. As it happens with him today, I only caught the win tote and exacta as Do Some Magic was only covered in the 3rd slot, which was too bad.
