3/7/20 Turfway Park Late Pick Four - Results

Race 5 - # 9 Complete (Final Odds 2.90) - "B" Selection
Race 6 - # 2 Solo Drink (12.70) - "B" Selection
Race 7 - # 10 Surreptitious (1.30*) - "A" Selection
Race 8 - # 6 Stately Oak (4.30) - "B" Selection

If you're only going to get one "A" Selection home, it's a good idea to have it be your big ticket single.  In a wager in which you have to hit 'em all if you want to win, they're all equally important; but Surreptitious getting under the wire a length in front of # 4 Claudette Nonstop (6.40) in the penultimate leg was a key component in making Saturday a day for me to collect instead of contribute.

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

# 1 Heat Road (11.30) - $566.60 Finish: 5th
# 2 Confection Fortune (6.00) - $305.40 Finish: 6th
# 4 Salty Rim (6.50) - $521.05 Finish: 2nd
# 9 Henny Hefner (3.00*) - $307.35 Finish: 4th

But that's what might have been.  What actually came to be was a correct Late Pick Four sequence of  9 / 2 / 10 / 6  which paid $352.55 for a fifty cent wager.  That makes for a profit of $300.05 on my initial $52.50 investment; or approximate odds of 5.71-1.

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
