Northfield Race 8

[Mrpick5]

A mind blowing $31k bet to win on another gassed up Noble horse. Truly amazing.

That's six in a row for him. Why did track officials and the other drivers let him come in there? Betting against 1/5 and 1/9 favorites every race is sure a lot of fun.

The betting there the last 2 days is nuts. Like yesterday at Northfield. Again race 8. Carrot top and Noble are both 6/5 with like $3500 bet to win on each horse. Noble is off the board. Carrot top finishes 2nd. And pays $7.80 to place. Because there was only $300 bet to place on a 6/5 shot. But Noble had over $1000 bet to place. Very strange.

   Someone made a big bet on Noble to place and lost.  Not really that strange.

Read the chart.  It was a Thoroughbred race with each 1/4 mile going slower than the previous one.  A classic example of 'point and shoot' (run and gun) to the front and going as fast as you can, as long as you can.

Worth mentioning that race handled over $194K (including pick 6 starting that race)...big pools all weekend at the flying turns. Bettors love hammering those big favorites.

over 50% of the total handle is CAW and it comes in after the race starts

it is not retail bettors

Northfield gives them a huge rebate

The CAWs are there but it's more like 25% of the total handle...no more or less than other tracks.

you seem to have grossly under estimated the percentage of the handle that the CAWs are in reality

there have been reports that M1 the number(sorry numper)is roughly 50%

retail handle is shrinking  way faster than the overall handle is

That's scary
