Race 6 - # 1 Cornbread Red (Final Odds 3.00) - "B" Selection
Race 7 - # 8 Lucky S. J. (9.70) - "A" Selection
Race 8 - The King Glorious - # 3 Acceptance (0.30*) - "A" Selection
Race 9 - # 8 Takeit Tothe Limit (0.90*) - "A" Selection
We offered a pretty compelling argument in the preview as to why Cornbread Red was not a top selection; however, Cornbread Red offered an even more convincing rebuttal in the actual running of the race, overtaking # 3 Guy Code (4.30) in the stretch to win the opening leg of the sequence.
For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other two horses to which we were alive entering the finale:
# 4 Indian Monkey (6.10) - $200.55
# 5 Cat One (3.10) - $136.05
Had we thought more highly of Cornbread Red we would have used him as an "A" Selection, allowing us to collect twice; but all of that is what might have been, not what was. What was was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of 1 / 8 / 3 / 8 with a payout of $50.55 for a fifty cent wager.
So we cash; but we cash at a loss. Which, while not a good result, sure beats not cashing at all.
Oh well; onto the next race.
Peace and Love,
Jimbo
