Another update required…

Updated my bets based on this…

WagerMates’s Saturday picks (I’ve manually scratched any horse with a number over 14)…

I’ll bet the same way as yesterday, but add superfecta boxes for the 9 races where WagerMate shows 4 picks.

How can you lose?

WagerMate’s picks for the first day…

I’ll bet $2 to win on every WagerMate horse that has an ROI better than 25% — that’s 12 horses.

I’ll also place $1 exacta box bets on WagerMate’s top 3 picks in each race.

I’ll place Pick 3 bets in each race, boxing WagerMate’s top 2 picks (A,B/A,B/A,B).

Have fun!

The finish order was 2, 4, 3, 6.

The good news is that means the superfecta bet was a winner. The bad news is that the $12 superfecta paid $6.07.

There’s never a long shot around when you need one.

WagerMate likes the four best horses…

None of them are good win bets.

I’ll bet an exacta with 2 and 3 over 1, 5, and 8.

For the superfecta, I’ll use 2,3,4,7/2,3,4,7/2,3,4,7/All.

I’ll also bet the Pick 3 starting with race 10: 5 & 10, 2 &3, and 1 & 3.

Good luck!

The horses finished 6, 5, 3, 2 — a good match to the WagerMate predictions.

With 13-1 Rombauer as the winner, the payouts were good. The $1 superfecta paid $1,025.50.

If you used WagerMate’s selections, and bet the minimum of $3 on the exacta, and the minimum of $2.40 on the superfecta, it turned your $5.40 into $102.55.

That was a fun race!

WagerMate makes some reasonable picks…

I’ll bet 5 over 2, 3, and 6 in the exacta.

I’ll also box WagerMate’s four choices in the superfecta.

Best of luck!

Don’t you hate it when your three horses bump into each other just out of the gate? None of them recovered from that mishap. Tough business.

WagerMate likes three reasonable horses…

But the Kentucky Derby tends to be an odd race, so this year, I’m going to bet it in an odd fashion. I’ll make two exacta wagers: 14,15,17/All and All/14,15,17.

I’ll be hoping for an unpopular horse to come in first or second.

I blame the pandemic for those picks.

WagerMate likes a mix of favorites and long shots today…

I’ll place $2 win bets on every horse that WagerMate says has an ROI over 25% and I’ll also place $1 exacta box bets on the top 3 picks in each race.

WagerMate’s picks for Friday…

I’ll place $2 win bets on every horse that WagerMate says has an ROI over 25% — that’s 7 horses on Friday.

I’ll also place $1 exacta box bets on the top 3 picks in each race.

Best of Luck!

Not even close on the superfecta.

WagerMate goes for long shots again…

Let’s make the bet simple: a super box of 2, 5, 7, 8, and 9.

Ummm, well, the ROI is easy to calculate; zero.

The only thing WagerMate got right: doubting Tiz The Law.

I’m using 8 in place of 10.

After a couple of scratches, WagerMate is willing to admit that Tiz the Law has a chance…

I’ll place win bets on 2 and 12.

I’ll use Tiz the Law in the rest of my bets.

I’ll bet the exacta of 16, 17, 18 over 2, 10, 12.

I’ll bet a trifecta of 16, 17, 18 over 2, 10, 12, 16 over 2, 10, 12, 16.

My superfecta bet will be 16, 17, 18 over 2, 10, 12, 16, 17, 18 over 2, 10, 12, 16, 17, 18 over 2, 10, 12, 16, 17, 18.

Have fun!

WagerMate refuses to love Tiz the Law…

I’ll place win bets on 2 and 12.

I’ll use Tiz the Law in the rest of my bets.

I’ll bet the exacta of 17 over 2, 6, 10, 12.

I’ll bet a trifecta of 17 over 2, 6, 10, 12, 16 over 2, 6, 10, 12, 16.

My superfecta bet will be 17 over 2, 6, 10, 12, 16, 18 over 2, 6, 10, 12, 16, 18 over 2, 6, 10, 12, 16, 18.

Enjoy!
