9/25/16 Los Alamitos Race Course Late Pick Four - Results

Race 6 - # 6 What We Doing (Final Odds 21,70) - "B" Selection
Race 7 - # 2 Never Say Try (1.10*) - "B" Selection
Race 8 - # 2 Lucky J Lane (5.60) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - # 9 Warren My Boy (2.20) - "B" Selection

I'm not sure why so much of the betting public let What We Doing go off at such a high price; after all, this is the same horse that left the gate at just 2-1 under these same conditions last week, when he took the Show after a troubled trip.  But whatever the reason, I'm grateful that they did, as their oversight allowed us to collect a payout well worth having.

For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other three runners to which we were alive in the finale:

# 2 Olimpio’s Scat Cat (9.30) - $1,322.45 Finish: 3rd
# 6 Resistanceisfutile (1.60*) - $493.40 Finish: 2nd
# 10 Silver Chrome (3.20) - $980.35 Finish: 4th

But that's what might have been.  What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of 6 / 2 / 2 / 9 which paid $686.15 for a fifty cent wager.  That makes for a profit of $608.65 on our $77.50 investment, or approximate odds of 7.85-1.

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
