Aqueduct nears Holiday break; HOL quad miss costly
By kasept. Filed in Uncategorized |
Sloppy play and/or poor decision-making cost a very nice overlaid P4 at Hollywood yesterday of nearly $560. Leaving $28.00 Next of Kendra off to start the ticket was the culprit, unless you designate not singling 2-5 Tenacious Tina in the 7th as the costliest miscue. Either way, this was a sequence that had a broad target on it and I missed.
Looking back at the races after the card concluded was hard to take, as the P6 paid $38,600. On the day, I came up with 3 Most Likely on top winners, a 2nd choice Best Value and the 2 slightly harder to find winners (5th/8th) as Super Adds. While it’s silly to say the P6 could have been hit, it’s stunning that the sextet paid that well on a group of races that didn’t offer full fields or very confusing scenarios.
I almost never play a P6 without a carryover, but seeing what happened yesterday would give pause to think about what situations make it attractive without a bonus pot. Hope you did OK.
