Race 7 - # 1 Desert Smoke (1.60*) - "A" Selection
Race 8 - # 3 Bella Luma (1.50*) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - # 6 Bronzino (Fr) (5.40) - "C" Selection
And that's why you play backup tickets.
Needless to say, it was nice to collect again. However, going "ALL" in the third leg just to see the Post Time Favorite win clear is, well, something less than nice, and demonstrates that there's always room for improvement in this game.
For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other seven runners to which I would have cashed in the nightcap:
# 1 Pepper Crown (13.30) - $209.95 Finish: 5th
# 2 Royal Banker (GB) 11.00) - $181.25 Finish: 7th
# 3 My Discretion (2.40) - $41.65 Finish: 4th
# 4 Cackle the Cuda (4.30) - $48.20 Finish: 2nd
# 5 Lucky Views (55.10) - $793.15 Finish: 6th
# 7 Hay Dude (GB) (1.70*) - $26.70 Finish: 3rd
# 8 Honest Iago (67.10) - $858.75 Finish: 8th
Since My Discretion was my "A" Selection in the final leg, his victory would have meant that the above payout for his win would have been trebled.
But that's what might have been. What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of 1 / 1 / 3 / 6 which paid $80.15 for a fifty cent wager. That makes for a profit of $23.15 on my initial $57.00 investment, or approximate odds of 0.41-1.
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
