The problem with the ""chalk"" is, as we study, read, re-read we try and make a case for non-chalk because, heck if it was this easy, we would just play chalk and take the 7-5 on each race. I guess looking back the best bet was just take the three, box them in the triple and take the $50.00 payout
But dont we want to win more then $50.00 for a triple bet ? Also why do I think I HAVE to put pletchers horses in each exacta or triple bet ? What is this saratoga ?
