I forgot to mention that a new wager is being offered by Santa Anita called Horse Racing Roulette. It will be available to any who wish to play it in the ROI. I'm sure that RQ will be glad to add this to his scoring repertoire.

How the Horse Racing Roulette Bet works:
•Each horse is assigned a roulette color: RED, BLACK, or GREEN.
These roulette color assignments can be found in the official program, on self-service machines, the Santa Anita Simulcast, or at your favorite ADW.
•To play, players chose a roulette color. For Example, RED. ($2 Minimum Wager)
•The horse that wins determines the winning roulette color. For example, if the winning horse was assigned RED. All players that chose RED win!
•Industry low 15.43% takeout.

In a sense, you have a choice of three different entries, with Red usually including the ML favorite and Green usually consisting of longshots. Payoffs, not surprisingly, tend to be low, since there is a high probability of success.

My ADW didn't seem to be offering it, but I might have been looking in the wrong place. Sometimes future wagers are offered in a different drop down than the usual wagering drop down menu so that may be the case with the roulette wager also. Yesterday's 9th race paid 3.60 which I guess is not a bad return considering, I think you would have gotten 3 horses had you wagered on "Red."
