I would start with not playing Turfway at all. Why would you? So much better racing goes on at other places. Tampa Bay turf racing seems pretty fair. I have a bit of a hard time with the dirt.

Hell no! Bet more!

All kidding aside...stay away from Turfway, especially with tri bets. You are betting on the worst jockeys in the world and expecting them to actually read a form, have a set of nuts, put forth great effort, have a sense of pace, etc so that your time and effort handicapping the pace, race shape, class, etc pays off. Good luck with that. There is a reason why when Bejarano and Leparoux started there they absolutely made a joke of the rest of the colony.

Add that to the fact that you are assuming a trainer like Joe Woodard is entering his horse with good intentions and has the horse ready to run its best that day.

add the Michael Maker runner's too. But I dont know with Turfway its like a crapshoot.

Tampa Bay its either favorite with super bombs. Or a super bomb beating a favorite, or the horses on form in paper dont even run a lick. Its nuts!

I gave up on Turfway 2 years ago. I have struggled with that track consistently. I now focus my efforts elsewhere.

Haven't focused on TBD too much.
