1/18/23 Turfway Park Late Pick Five - Results

Race 4 - # 5 Spears Mill (Final Odds 1.29*) - "A" Selection
Race 5 - # 1 Garden Belle (23.09) - "C" Selection
Race 6 - # 2 Night Time (2.10*) - "C+" Selection
Race 7 - # 4 Ravella (1.28*) - "A" Selection
Race 8 - # 13 Chippewa (5.02) - "A" Selection

If you scroll down to my preview for this sequence, you'll see my pre-race comments stating my reasons for playing against Night Time in Race 6.  As sometimes happens in such situations, I was wrong in my assessment of Night Time's chances this Wednesday.  Very wrong.  Had I been bullish rather than bearish on Night Time, and made this Post Time Favorite my "A" Selection for the third leg of the sequence, I would have cashed for the big prize.  Instead, I did not.

Oh well; onto the next race.

Meanwhile, those who had the correct Late Pick Five sequence of  5 / 1 / 2 / 4 / 13  were rewarded with a payout of $2,980.79 for their fifty cent wager.  Those who had four out of the five collect $14.98.  Since I had four out of five correct on two of my tickets; specifically, these two:

A's and B+'s with One C+

$0.50 P4: (5),9 with 5,7 with (2),8 with (4) with 6,(13) $8.00

A's with One C

$0.50 P4: (5) with (1),2,9,11 with 3 with (4) with (13) $2.00

I collect that consolation payout three times (the top ticket has two combinations containing four of the five winners).  Which means that I get back $44.94 of my $110.50 investment.  Which, while not winning, is much, much better than getting back $0.00 of my $110.50 investment.

May God bless all who profited as they spend their winnings.

Peace and Love,

Jimbo
