Especially for those like me, that do not play the turf particularly well.
I don't believe there are exactas this year WPS and 25/1 odds...

Right, no exactas. Guess that experiment didn't work out for them. First race is the Oceanside(R8).

I believe the 100 is deducted for scoring if you whiff so choose the picks/days carefully . also bets 50 & under don't count for scoring. read the rules.though as i only skimmed it once.

The way I read that that, is just simply you must use your complete $100 bankroll per race to qualify for prizes?

Correct you have to bet $100 total for it to count in your 20 required bets

Are you sure that the 4 is scratched? Not on Equibase or anywhere else I could find.
