took a page from my friends book

I was playing around with PRX today when my good friend Tim ( LT.1 ) called on skype.
We were discussing my picks in race 6 and he asked who my key horse was.
I really liked the 5 but he was bet down to 4/5.
Tim suggested that we should take a closer look at my 2nd pick the 6 who was going off at 5/1
I played the exacta with both horses because when we looked at all the corrallaries the 6 showed a lot of red.
A 1.00 wheel cost me 14.00 and when the 6 won and the 4 who was 40/1 ran 2nd the exacta returned 205.50 for a very nice profit.
If LT had not pointed out all the corrallary support on the 6 and all the short falls on my top ranked horse I would have lost this race.
Just shows that blindly playing your top horse can be very costly.
Thanks Tim for reminding me to look close at you 2nd and 3rd ranked horses.
