One or 2 horse bet

[Appy]

Paying close attention to Bill, FTL, Jim, et al goes without saying. But in this race of 2 horse to win bets you are the last line, so you get some love!
Here's what I did: I took your advice while capping another card, and changed from my top and the rdss top as the bets to MY 2 top Win choices.
Here's what happened:
Strike rate nearly doubled. 7w/10 races.
My top choice for 1 horse W bets only hit 4 times.
Here's the rub.
With 2 horse win betting I won 30% more dollars, but at double the risk, so my ROI equaled +58%.
The 1 horse to win bets won only about 60% as many dollars, but produced 83% ROI due to only half the risk.
So far I'm not sure I feel it's worth doubling the risk for 1/3 more dollars won, just like I don't bet 8/5 horses.

Where I made good on dollars was on 2 exacta and 1 trifecta wins. That earned me right at 150% ROI playing 10 races. A $192 trifecta and $51.90 exacta in the same race will do that! Wish I could say I can do that every time. 55% Solutions will help me with that.

Betting 1 or 2 horses per race is just a matter of which one you are comfortable and successful with. I learned 2 horse betting when I started with Doc and have found it works for me. If 1 horse bets are working for you stay with it. Continued good skill.

Got to keep increasing the sample size, keep listening and studying, and getting better, before I can say anything is best or not.
On the card I did today (AQU 2/16) 2 horse W kicked the tail off 1 horse to win, by a margin of +110 to -45.
