I do agree though, that it shows what a great wager the pick 4 can be. How else can you anchor a 1-5 and still get back nearly $1200 with 2 short priced horses and a bomb?

Agreed... The pick 4 is my favorite wager for the reasons you stated. You only have to have one "difficult" horse to make the thing pay well.

I also had it, spent $500 to get there for $2 but mission accomplished as I figured even money on Big Brown was a reasonable goal. I used 6 in the turf race and all (in some capacity) in the distaff, so I'd disagree with Scav that the Jones filly was a single. If Lexi Star gets a little better trip she probably wins, for that matter.
