Boxcar prices in the 7th.

Grey horse with a big lead hops the rail at 9-2 and tossing his jock on the floor. Hopefully horse and jock are ok.

Guess the super price.

66-1 over 6-1 over 52-1 over 42-1. (three longest shots in the top 4). The favorites were 5-2 and 3-1.

11 horse field. Pool was 49 grand.

Someone hit the pick 5 today at GG? Two people hit it? How's that possible?

If I had to guess I would say they used the all button in the 7th. Not as impossible as it may seem because of the $.50 cent wager. Congrats to whoever hit it.

The Parlay was about 100,000-1, which means for a 50 cent bet, it was 50,000-1. The 'proper price' was 50 grand and each winner got 18 grand and there was somehow, 2 winners.

There was a pick 5 at GG on Apr 14th i believe where the pool was 150k (more than 3 times the size of yesterday's pool) and that 50 cent parlay was about 65,000-1 and nobody hit.

You would think that a parlay of 65k into a pool of 150k has a better chance to be hit than a 50k parlay into a 40k pool. (and, it was hit by more than one ticket). Also, in the 150k pool ,there was a carryover heading into that day, so you figure sharper players were involved and they still couldnt take it down yet the non carryover people crushed the pool with a 134 dollar winner (longest shot in an 11 horse field) and the previous race, the longest shot in the race won that race also. Longest shot in back to back races.
