Would a box all 10 cent superfecta make sense???

One 7-2 horse mixed in with four horses from 8-1 to 20-1. The 7-2 was third or fourth and the other prices juiced the payoff.

But Sunday at Hollywood, Bethani and I hit a $424 tri keying the 'obvious' horse on top with five underneath ($20). The $1 payout was $212, so we got 10-1 in a far less risky bet.

Steve-

This is my favorite bet. If you have the balls and luck to put a price on top, the payouts can be extraordinary.

3 horses on top of five will cost 60 bucks with a realistic chance of a nice tri.

Going off on a bit of a tangent here, but my last year my friends calculated that you would have a huge ROI by playing all/all exacta boxes in the Derby over the past 10 years or so. Even without the Giacomo race, you still would be positive.
