Belmont\'s 10th race Friday. 52-1 over a 67-1 in a 12 horse field. $2 exacta comes back $1,200. Huh?
Yes, that\'s correct. But you only got robbed if you had it, and since I assume you didn\'t, don\'t lose any sleep.
All kidding aside, the winner was actually \'bet some\' in the exactas , which depressed the payoff even more than usual. The exacta with the 6/5 favorite 2nd was 300+, as a reference.
Truth is, all bomb/bomb combos in NY suck as to fair payoff value. The net loss must be -95% ROI if you bet them all.
Jackie Davis strikes again.
You\'re right. I only bet him win and place and boxed him with the 3 and the 12. I would have been disappointed with the $300 exacta with the 3 who was unlucky not to at least get the place.
