Another try at getting Round 2 of my show parlays off the ground:

$100 to show on Indian Blessing in the Gallant Bloom Hdcp, race 9 at Belmont today.

Let's see if they allow show betting.

Foiled again. With the scratch there was no show betting.

This reply may be too late for the one you were thinking of, but I certainly don't mind if you keep track of your own plays in this thread.

Yes, but I expect it to be at the same torrid pace of plays I've already been posting.

Round 2, bet #1*:

$100 to show on Rachel Alexandra in Ky Oaks.


--Dunbar

*this thread began with jman trying to put together a string of 10 show bets, parlaying the amount won each time. He never quite made the 10-bet string successfully. BUT, when looked at as a string of separate $2 bets, he averaged a $1.99+ return on each $2 bet.

jman gave it a rest after 119 show bets; then I took up the mantel. My "Round 1" ended on the 3rd bet.
