Brag: Hit an Exacta on the derby

[furyshade]

[ QUOTE ]
it varies from race to race. The Kentucky Derby usually has 20, which is a lot for a horse race.

that is 380 permutations, given that you can eliminate some horses entirely, lets say 7 horses are totally out of contention, that is still 156 permutations, that seems like a really really bad bet

considering that the takeout (rake) is something like 17%, they're all bad bets.

Brag: Hit the same exacta
Beat: Only a $2 box
Variance: Made bet and collected monies at Churchill Downs

I hit it also. I did 5, 3 way exactas/boxed. I hit it on 4 of them. My buddy hit the exacta, trifecta and the super. Also collected from the window at Churchill. Wasn't it a perfect day(weather) to be at the track?

so my conclusion is that you cannot lose at horse racing?

Hitting it at Churchill would have made it around 1000 times better.
