1/11/20 Turfway Park Late Pick Four - Results

Race 5 - # 7 Miss Mosaic (Final Odds 1.80) - "A" Selection
Race 6 - # 2 Sacred Storm (1.30*) - "A" Selection
Race 7 - # 11 Ramsey Solution (0.70*) - "A" Selection
Race 8 - # 2 Bay of Fables (9.20) - via DQ* - "C" Selection

* In Race 8, "A" Selection # 5 Liner (2.00) crossed under the wire first; but Liner was disqualified and placed 2nd.

Going four deep in both the second and third legs just to land on the Post Time Favorite in each contest is not what you would call good handicapping.  But having a non-Favorite "A" Selection win is always a good thing; and there's absolutely nothing wrong with a play that brings three Aces home.

For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other ten runners to which I would have cashed in the nightcap:

# 1 Green Garnet (6.00) - $205.55 Finish: 7th
# 4 Matzo Bella (1.40*) - $45.90 Finish: 5th
# 5 Liner (2.00) - $56.20 Finish: 1st; DQ to 2nd
# 6 Tiz Stella (51.50) - $1,299.45 Finish: 6th
# 7 Sassy Zeeman (29.60) - $957.40 Finish: 10th
# 8 Here's to You (38.50) - $1.302.70 Finish: 11th
# 9 Kelly's Agenda (37.60) - $672.35 Finish: 4th
# 11 Temperance Road (13.40) - $348.45 Finish: 3rd
# 12 Templesis (23.70) - $591.60 Finish: 9th
# 13 She Got It (44.80) - $556.35 Finish: 8th

Had Liner not been disqualified, I would have collected $168.60 ($56.20 x 3) thanks to having all four "A" Selections win.

But that's what might have been.  What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of  7 / 2 / 11 / 2  which paid $205.25 for a fifty cent wager.  That makes for a profit of $142.25 on my initial $63 investment; or approximate odds of 2.26-1.

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
