5.80 with Orb.
Then jumps to 45 for the next lowest. Quite a gap.
Ever seen the Pimlico surface this slow?
any chance you would be kind enough to post all the payoffs? thx.
$2 ticket in the Pimlico Special-Preakness double.
Last Gunfighter (7) with:
1. Orb $5.80
2. Goldencents $49.40
3. Titletown Five $344.40
4. Departing $55.20
5. Mylute $75.00
6. Oxbow $100.80
7. Will Take Charge $60.20
8. Govenor Charlie $60.20
9. Itsmyluckyday $45.40
If they bet it like this in the exacta/tri pool, we\'re golden. Big if though.
.
yeah, getting 17-1 on departing and 14-1 on IMLD is damn good. We just need Orb & Rosario to cooperate as well as my 2 horses.
Couldn\'t find this wager on either drf bets or xpressbet website, did I miss something or was it only available on track or via simulcast?

You needed to choose \"preakness double\" as the track..the special doubles always have their own track name to separate them from a regular double on the same day..
Pizzaman ought to be able to correct this. For what it\'s worth, my guess at the win odds based on the double payoffs. I\'d guess win odds will be flattened out, but this might give an indication of the odds in the exotics.
1 Orb 0.60
2 Golden 10
3 Title 60
4 Depart 10
5 Lute 13
6 Ox 18
7 WTC 12
8 Gov 11
9 IMLD 9
Never tried this before, but here are predicted $1 exacta will-pays if those numbers are even close to correct. I won\'t be surprised if they are off by more than a factor of 2! Exactas with Orb on top turned out to be close to what the win odds were. Pizzaman, what are the predicted trifecta payoffs with Orb on top??

The dd payoffs look kinda screwy to me. Not sure the real betting will reflect those numbers.

Paolo this is great. It does look like My Lute and Goldencents are down to like 7-1. I would be happy with some of the pays with Orb on top but this is such a downer compared to the possible pays of two weeks ago. How low some of the Orb exactas go will have a big impact on what I do today. Definitely not a day to box unless you feel strong Orb will not be in the money. As for the tris I will only be figuring the odds on about 6 of them because this is all I will bet. But ur info here is a huge help in plotting strategy so thanx.
The Pim Special/Preakness double will-pays provided a pretty fair forecast of the actual win odds at post time:
Predict Actual
Orb 0.6 0.7
Golden 9.6 9.5
Title 59.1 22.3
Depart 9.8 10.2
Lute 12.6 10.9
Ox 17.6 15.4
WTC 11.7 11.1
Gov 11.1 9.4
IMLD 8.7 8.5
The largest error involved Titletown, who got a lot more play on Saturday than he did in the Friday pool. Not only the Saturday win pool, but in the exacta pool as well. A lot of press in the local papers about his celebrity connections or just the occasional player looking for a score with the longest shot on the board?
The overall method, unfortunately, was less fair at predicting actual Preakness exacta odds than win odds, and it was rather poor at predicting tri and super payoffs. Would require somebody smarter than me looking at a large sample to determine the effects of boxing and wheeling and otherwise spreading out in the exotics before I could firmly conclude that there was some \'smart\' or \'hidden\' money on the winning tri and super tickets.

Hi 5 $32,643 $16,094 8 17
On the surface, I don\'t see \'value\' in these payoffs for an average player; but there is obviously tremendous value to the presumed small number of players who snatched up over half of these very large mutuel pools. Any insight or opinions would be appreciated.
