I had the exacta in the 6th and didn't find it particularly low. If you think the $5.2 million firster was 2-1 in exotics, where smart people are betting, you're kidding yourself. Make him closer to the price he should have been and the $198 is generous.

Default Tampa Bay opens saturday

I'd suggest you switch your action to a track with full fields and nice payouts such as Tampa Bay.. Sure the takeout is higher, but the payouts are there. Why agonize over a circuit that is running the way you say ? I personally donot play the Big A inner meet. I follow the sun. Saratoga, Belmont, Keeneland, Churchill, Calder, Tampa ....... I buy what is in season, especially with the turf. Happier days ahead

sounds like the winter duldrums of racing setting in.....the aq meet is hardly playable..save a few plays ..there is no conststancey in the track set up..your thowing darts...5 rules of capping life at the big a inner.

1 the horse that figures cant get to the plodder with front speed
2 well intentioned firsters get pounded down and dont runa step
3 if your lucky enough to be right and hit the payout is less than the parlay in most cases
4 when in doubt see rule 1
5 watchig a few races does no good as the mix of horses makes it a crap shoot..as they seal or roll the track without notice...you have to be there...
