Heck I would freestyle also if I had that many numbers
written down. He must have a giant erasable white board
when he goes to Arlington. Thinks he is the UPS guy.

If a scratch occurs... does one kill themselves?
To get that many numbers in you gotta start
punching a week before they enter the gate.

Computers at home are good things.

Most of the big money I've made in thoroughbred and parimutuel wagering has been on trifectas and superfectas. I hold my own very well on straight win and place bets....being not afraid to play chalks in the right circumstances.

I have noticed at least at California tracks the trifecta and superfecta payouts have been diminishing when I'm paying attention. In fact it's been a long time since I played trifectas on "every day" races in NorCal, since the "big score" opportunity is nowhere what it once was.

I usually do play Supers on Triple Crown races as a lottery ticket type fun wager. I usually play between $200 and $450 or so, and have had little success to date. I have cashed a couple, but not more than $600 as I recall in the last 7 or 8 years.

My old days at the South Florida dog tracks I used to be a master of four digit super and tri payoffs. Really.


I do like the Scavs strategy with the $108 total wager.

In a twelve horse field, of course.

Thanks for sharing. I'll probably take that angle if available for the Triple Crown races this year.
