Hi dvlander:
With an 80% hit rate in your top three contenders I would bet them all if odds are 7/2 or better. Drop the low odds horse if under 7/2. If all your contenders are at low odds pass the race.
A lot of guys don't like betting more than one horse in a race. I think if you show a profit and it is compatible with your betting personality then it is a perfectly acceptable strategy. A big bonus would be a significant decrease in long runouts, which can be psychologically devastating.
