OK. Took a first look at Belmont.

Certainly need to do further examination and possible regrading. Mainly concerned with a structure that makes sense at this point. Never tried this before for pick6...

Here is what I did:

After grading horses A,B,C,X. I first constructed a strict A,B ticket.
4X2X3X2X3X3=$864

Next thought was to alternate C's with A's in all other races. I had small number of A horses, so I regraded B's to Create B+. Next set to include A's and B+ with C's in any one race. Guess my risk is that if my C's win more than one leg I'm out. Perhaps I should cover multiple C's with leftover cash.

I had C horses in 4 of the 6 races. I used C's in each leg with A, B+ in all others. 4 additional tickets totaling $1,044.

Balance to potentially use covering multiple C's $592.

Main question is does this structure make any sense? Biggest concern right now iis that my main A,B ticket seems short for only 35% of total investment. Am I spending too much on covers?

Thanks

Sounds like a reasonable structure to me.

Thanks. I will keep working with this general concept and see how it shakes out.

Finding this much harder than I thought...
