Race 8 at Charles Town is official. And we done good.
# 10 Saturday Surprise (Final Odds 2-5) Wins, paying $2.80 / $2.40 / $2.20. So our $10 across nets a $7.00 profit.
# 1 Shea Ballet (20-1) finishes third, paying $6.60 to Show. So our $2 across nets a $0.60 profit.
Since neither the # 1 nor the # 9 Lookout Kate (24-1) finished second, these three wagers:
$1.00 EX (BOX ) 1, 9, 10 $6.00
$1.00 EX (BOX ) 9, 10 $2.00
$2.00 EX (PWHL) 10 / 9 $2.00
are losers. Net loss on those three tickets is $10.00.
# 4 Cecileabration (11-1) took the Place; the # 10 / # 4 Exacta paid $7.70. So our one dollar Exacta Part-Wheel of the # 10 on top of # 1 and # 4 (a two dollar investment) nets a profit of $5.70.
The four dollars we invested in the one dollar Trifecta of #10 on top of # 9 on top of four other horses is lost. But the six dollars that we invested in the one dollar Trifecta of # 10 keyed on top of # 1, # 4, and # 9 returns $86.70. So the ten dollars total investment in Trifecta tickets nets a profit of $76.70.
Since # 9 did not finish in the top four, our dime Superfecta box costing two dollars and forty cents is lost. However, our dime Superfecta with the # 10 on top of # 1, # 4, and # 9 on top of # 1, # 4, # 5, and # 9 on top of “ALL”, a six dollar and thirty cent investment, returns $19.99, making our net profit from playing the Superfecta $11.29.
So the bottom line is that our total investment in Race 8 @ Charles Town of $66.70 returns $158.19, a profit of $91.49. And while profit is always good, it's even better when it's increased from making the right moves; as the profit we earned from our play is more than the profit we would have made had we just put the full investment on Saturday Surprise to Win.
So we padded our bankroll a bit right before the Breeders' Cup; not bad for a Tuesday's night work. I hope you all had it with me. May God bless us as we spend our winnings.
Onto the next race!
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
