One of the ways to build up a bit of a bankroll for larger exotic bets is to start with something simpler like the exactor, and then work up to triactors, superfectas, Win 3 and Pick 4 tickets. Keep in mind that the first step is to consider the M/L fave as the 1, the 2nd fave as the 2, the 3rd fave as the 3 etc.
This allows you to clearly see your balance of favorites, contenders and longshots. Based on empirical research mostly from WEG (Mohawk and Woodbine) harness racing tracks, here are the 2 tickets we will be buying for select exactors this week:
A - $1 EX 1234 with 5678 = $16
B - $1 EX 5678 with 123 = $12
Total Wager per selected race = $28
Maximum wager per card = $56
A gives us the faves over longshots, B gives us the faves underneath.
Implementation: We will be looking for the first two races with a favorite at 5/2 or higher and an eighth fave with a M/L of 10-1 or less. If you try this method at your local track, you may have to adjust this M/L spread to 12-1 to find a playable race, and please post your success rate and stories, thanks kindly.
I'll try this for a week or two and regardless if any success is achieved short-term, we may expand the discussion to include triactors and Pick 3 bets within the month.
Many Happy Returns!
