[Pick Six Syndicate]

What can I say? The horse won, but nobody is getting rich.

Slim Pickings:
Even off a lastout trip, Mitchell and Bejarano aren't going to sneak a horse past the smart money in a 6 horse field.

Not in these pools!

The backdoor Double was a healthy surprise
but therefore the 2-3-4 and 3-4-5 Pick Three were unhittable
the Pick Three and Double going forward from r4 were meager.
Only slightly above value in the single race pools.
Didn't play the Pick Six today.

In general:
I appreciate a horse like Band of Thunder.
You want your key or your single to be reliable.
If Thunder were to run that race 100 times, he was going to be in the money over 90 times. He was going to be 1st or 2nd 75 times...

unfortunately at $4.20 $3 and $2.40 you aren't securing a ton of profit margin.


Great forum , been lurking for a while.
Plan on posting Pick Six plays when unsponsored for carryover days. I think that is the only way to prove by example!
