When playing a Pick Anything (Three, Four, Five, Six) one of the worst things that can happen to your play is that the last horse you drop from your main ticket gets the Win in their particular leg.  So in a way I feel somewhat fortunate because, not just one, but rather each of the three "C" Selection victors above were late drops from my primary ticket; for while one wrong decision whether to "use or lose" could lead a player to curse his bad luck, three such decisions are an indication that I simply did not do a good job of handicapping.  Trust me, it's much easy to recover psychologically from a loss due to bad decision making than it is from one due to bad luck; though in either case the proper response is:

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Rainbow Pick Six sequence of  2 / 3 / 3 / 8 / 6 / 9  were rewarded with a payout of $3,187.64 for their twenty cent wager.  May God bless them as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
