Sorry, hit a key and my reply flew out. So here is my plan that works well,
gives me the thrill of watching the top runners and riders do their thing and
keeps me in the green . First, I am an exacta player and occasional Tri player.
Whatever program you use, you must be comfortable with, and follow the instructions to the letter. Remember this is a horserace. When the chute opens, good things do not always happen. And the race may be over for one or two of our horses. Doesn't mean you made the wrong choices.
At one time I spent making a living at the Fairgrounds and Vegas . Spent as many as 9 straight days in Vegas and broke even betting $600 exactas. Now
I am a $2 better and $1 on exacta combos. Before you laugh that off the exacta I hit last night at Penn paid $280.20 (4th). I got just as big a charge out of the 109-1 shot running second as any other race. Did not play the tri, beacuse I am not that "wild man" any more. And I have hit them for more than 5k. Now when I get up 100%, I'm done for that day or night. (I don't get the idea I am playing with their money, my idea it is my money)If lose 4 in a row, I'm also done . It's not my day. As Jim Bradsaw says "I,m on " or "I'm off"
The exacta betting system I use is 3/4 . Example 123 with 1234, Cost $9 bucks. the Tris I do bet are 2-5-6 or 5-2-6 . I have to have 14 points or better to bet an exacta, Ex: 5-2,4-1,6-1, 3-1 total is 15.3 or its probably not profitable.
As for programs, I have been a sucessful Validator user since the 90's, nothing else, even when it was outdated by Trackmaster. Ted, Bill and Ritchie were very helpful with Validator.
So hope this helps, we all have been there .

and from bob: " If you think you are beaten , you are. If you think you dare not you don"t. If you would like to win, but don't think you can, its almost certain you won't", For out in this world you will find, success begins with a fellows will, And its all in the state of mind"
