in regards to the early P4...
Race 4...I thought the 2-1 ML, while surely capable, had some troubles facing older horses last yr at NFLD.
It is a very competitive field and longer shots have a shot...
Like #6 Quick Trick...if the front end is softened up, he could fly by them all late.
While I could have left one horse off, I'm not a fan of the "all but one" wagers.
I rarely give out ALL's in my wagers, but since the ticket was small, i thought it was worthy.
in regards on how to bet...
everyone has different bank rolls and styles.
I always recommend to new people/small wager people....to play the top 2 over the top 4 in exactas for only $6...wont win alot but wont lose alot as you can still have fun without wagering alot.
My top pick wins 41% of the time, top 2 is at 64% and the winners is in my top 4 86% of the time...so, you can construct your tri and supers accordingly....
Hope that helps and best of luck,
GSB
