This may be the single dumbest idea they have come up with yet.

I think most people would agree with me that Tom Aronson needs to be flogged to death.

It's all about dumbing down the bets to appeal to slots players. Next thing you know you'll be able to bet silks colors too... I'll take flamingo pink for a Benjamin

I wonder how the Keeneland superfecta "quick pick" has been doing? I haven't seen it emphasized at the track (in the programs, etc) I wonder if the casual betting folks even know it exists?

i wonder if any track has ever considered a 'box pick six' where the six numbers of the winners can come in in any order? that probably wouldn't go over well either tho...

[2 Dollar Bill]

Here are some of the over/ under bets

A ) Hot Dogs will cost $ 4.50.... Over or under
B) Watered down warm beer $ 7.50
( in a special CD cup ).... $ 9.50 Over or under
C) Box seats will cost $ 35.00 [ on special days ].... over or under

D) The starting gate @ Derby that holds 20 horses.....over or under
will have 18 starters
E ) The Derby exacta will pay $ 350.00 ... over or under

F ) The betting line on derby day will be 35 deep.....over or under
with two minutes to post & the line will be held
up with someone asking..."" what is a show bet.""

***more to follow****
