Well with 40 cent winners you have to have 5 winners to each loser in order to break even. No thanks, doesnt sound like a very good investment strategy to me. he had one scratch and gave out 5 faves and a 3rd choice. had 4 winners that paid 5.50, 6.70, 2.40, and 6.20. Basically if you bet all of em to win for two bucks(including the two losers) you got back 20.80 cents on 12 dollars in bets. Thats equal to betting 12 bucks on a horse who pays 4-5 or 3.80. I dunno if I like that investment strategy a whole lot. Actually its not equal to betting one horse at 4-5 because when you bet 6 short priced horses to win you have a lot more risk than just betting one short priced horse. Its a profit though.
