Race 9 - # 11 Michael Mundo (Final Odds 11.80) - "A" Selection
Race 10 - # 5 Cool Green (2.20) - "A" Selection
Race 11 - The San Carlos - # 4 American Anthem (0.90*) - "A" Selection
Race 12 - # 2 Our Slick Chick (3.50) - "A" Selection
And that's why you press up your top selections.
Granted, it wasn't a very economical play. Despite my pre-race protestations, it looks like I really did have a handle on the opening leg, thus making going "ALL" in quite unnecessary. And American Anthem's victory in the San Carlos (albeit by just a head) made the backup "C" Selections an un-needed expenditure. But, of course, it's always much easier to know how you should have played your hand once all the cards are exposed.
For the record, here are the $0.50 Will Pays for the other five runners to which I would have cashed in the nightcap:
# 5 Chalky (Ire) (3.90) - $305.70 Finish: 4th
# 6 Temple Princess (1.60*) - $252.65 Finish: 2nd
# 7 Conformation (6.20) - $454.85 Finish: 7th
# 8 Trophy Bridle (11.80) - $825.95 Finish: 5th
# 9 Majestic Design (9.10) - $1,601.65 Finish: 6th
But that's what might have been. What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of 11 / 5 / 4 / 2 which paid $390.45 for a fifty cent wager. Since I had it three times I collect $1,171.35. That makes for a profit of $1,096.35 on my initial $75 investment, or approximate odds of 14.62-1.
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
