I felt like i had worked 2 (8) hr shifts. It's rough.! Those photos can be button poppers. LOL

With One horse win betting you can bet almost all your horse races Win / Place.

I do this for All horses over 5-1 , often they pay $6. plus to place. A 12 -1 horse with no heavy favorite will pay $ 8 to $ 10 to place( depending on field size ) which is more money than some people get on the winner. Also many times the PLACE POOL is IGNORED.
