Woodbine and Mohawk Pick 3 / Pick 4 selections 26AUG11

After hitting last night's Mohawk Late Pick 4, on only the second day of sharing my picks, I'm now even more excited to keep sharing my Outsiders System* selections. Here are some $8 tickets for your consideration this afternoon and evening:

Bracketed numbers are to be deployed in the event of an early scratch (late scratches get you the fave in that leg of the ticket).


Woodbine 26AUG2011:

Race 4 - Pick 4

7, 3, 6, 4, 5 (1) / 5, 2 (4) / 5 (1) / 3, 8, 7, 6 (2)

40 bets x .20 = $8


Race 6 - Pick 3

5, 1 (4) / 3, 8, 7, 6 (2) / 3 (7)

8 bets x $1 = $8




Mohawk Race 4 - Pick 4

This Pick 4 suggestion employs a tactic called Fade the Fave, whereby you survey the 8 Pick 4 races (early and late P4's) and find the lowest M/L odds on any horse, which in this case is Il Mago (2 to 1) in the 6th, a trotter driven by Trevor Ritchie, a top trotting driver.

The way to play Fade the Fave is choose 5 other horses instead of the low-odds fave, and you only get to take the low odds fave if one of your horses scratches, early or late. Here it is:

4, 5 (6) / 2, 4 (9) / 8, 6, 3, 9, 1 (5) / 5, 2 (9)

40 bets x .20 = $8


* Outsiders System - Every ticket must include at least one horse ranked as an Oustider, that is, with Morning Line odds of anywhere from 8 to 1 up to 12 to 1.

Mohawk Pick 4 Selections for Thursday August 25, 2011

For those of you who are new to the Outsiders System, these selections are not designed to predict the Pick 4 outcome, but rather, are created using an optimal risk-reward methodology and are designed to help you cash big tickets at the racetrack! Each suggested ticket will always include one or more "outsiders", which are horses ranked between 8 to 1 and 12-1 on the Morning Line.


Okay, here's a $16 ticket suggestion for the last Pick 4, as the early lineup looks too deep to handicap:


() - Bracketed horse is there in case one or more of the picks scratch.

Race 8:

8, 6, 5, 3 (4,10)



Race 9:

6 - Key

(5)



Race 10:


2, 6, 7, 4, 1 (3)


Race 11:


5, 6, 7, 4 (8)




Summary of $16 (80 bets x .20 per) Late P4 ticket:

8 6 5 3 / 6 / 2 6 7 4 1 / 5 6 7 4


Best of luck to everyone, and have fun!!!


26AUGAM RESULTS UPDATE: We WON!!! In only our second day of trying to help people cash bigger tickets at the track, we hit one, albeit only a lil fella. Here are your winning numbers from last night's Late pick 4 at Mohawk Racetrack:

6 / 6 / 2 / 4 = $297.15

As we had .20 on this combo, we made back $59.43, and at least we broke our Maiden! We were alive on 4 horses in the last race and were fortunate the 1/5 fave didn't come through. More on fading the fave later today.

We now are ready to roll on to bigger and better payouts! Stay tuned.

Which horse racing handicapping services are best? Please comment...

So far, I like Brisnet (Bloodstock Research Information Services) the best.

I am reviewing Rich Allen's Horse Betting Professor system, and I like his focus on multi-race bets, as that is where all my profits come from.

Jim Mazur's Progressive Handicapping looks valuable, so I'll be taking a look at his offerings in coming weeks as well.

CompuBet.com is useful for harness racing.

TODAY: $1.5 MILLION Rainbow Six at Gulfstream!

With carryover at $1.3 mil, record payout guaranteed

HALLANDALE BEACH, FL – Anticipation is building at Gulfstream Park as the scheduled guaranteed payout of the Rainbow 6 jackpot on Saturday grows closer. As long as no one claims the $1.3 million-plus jackpot in the meantime, bettors will be scrambling to get a share of a bonanza that could grow as high as several million dollars.

The innovative 10-cent wager has required a bettor to be the only ticket-holder with a single winning combination on the last six races in order to claim the jackpot that has been growing since Feb. 17. On Saturday, the next to last day of the 2011 Gulfstream Park meeting, the entire pool is scheduled to be disbursed among all bettors with tickets including the winners of the last six races on the 12-race program..

The guaranteed payout of the entire pool may send bettors into somewhat of a quandary about how to bet the Rainbow 6. They will have to decide whether to avoid betting more than a single ticket on each combination or forego the chance of winning the whole jackpot and play multiple tickets in the hope of carving out a bigger share of the huge guaranteed payout.

The Rainbow 6 jackpot has been hit four times, including a $221,677 payout on Jan. 27, and the large evenly-matched fields in the six races on Saturday may make it possible for a single bettor to take down the whole jackpot. If not, the entire Rainbow 6 pool, including the $1.3 million-and-growing carryover, will be spread out to all betters holding tickets with all six winners in races 7-12.

Anticipating a jump in betting, starting Thursday Gulfstream’s pari-mutuel clerks will accept wagers on the Rainbow 6, which previously had been accepted only at self-bet terminals.

The Rainbow 6 will be kicked off in the seventh race, a seven-furlong race for $12,500 claiming maidens that drew a field of 12. A field of 12 $15,000-$20,000 claimers was entered for the eighth race, which will be run at five furlongs on turf. The ninth race, a maiden special weight race at six furlongs, will include the smallest field of the six races with 10 entrants. The final three races of the Rainbow 6, a mile allowance, a 1 1/16-mile allowance and a 1 1/8-mile maiden race for $20,000-$25,000 claimers, all attracted 12-horse fields and will all be run on turf.
