I've gone the other route - I only bet one horse to win. I've set minimal acceptable odds as well as isolating either EP types with a significant advantage or else horses that fit the model of the last three days in at least two of the primary factors.
During the whole Belmont meet I played only 46 races, a number that I equaled today at the Spa. But at Belmont I had 31% winners at an average of $12.44.
At the Spa I'm at 22% and averaging a $10.20 mutuel. Only a slight progression helped me to turn a profit today, but I'll retreat now to flat bets for the rest of the meet, if I play at all. Increasing the bet size takes me out of my comfort zone. |
