Everywhere... Belmont, Aqu and Keeneland mostly... I splash around with Hollywood a bit.
The last big one I hit was when Fly Down blew Drosselmeyer away... I went 5-2-2, I also used Carnivore with Fly Down, tossed the Belmont winner. I cought Lezcano at like 5-1 in first leg, Fly Down, and I went 2 deep in last and ran 1-2 with the MUCH BIGGER PRICE WIRING. I think it was Cayo Hueso...

Personally, I try to avoid multi race bets... 1 late scratch can ruin you. The turf scratches that happen at Belmont and Aqueduct once spring arrives and turns into summer can be brutal.

Keeneland is a tough track. They have big fields and most races are very competitive.

If I were to play the multi-race tickets, I would try to do so where the fields are fairly large, and void of scratches more times than not.

I don't have a rigid set of rules and adapt as needed, but I usually play 3 tickets when rolling for action.
1x3x3
3x1x3
3x3x1

That's 27 combinations with a single in each leg. The single doesn't necessarily mean the most likely, but whatever I like the best. If you can hit 2 of the singles in any 3 race series, you are open to three on 2 of the 3 tickets.
