what is so special about the #8 horse?
why no action at all on the #1 horse?
why didn't you play the 5 and 6 over the 7?
why didn't you play the fave underneath?
to all of the above.
looking for overlays in the exacta pool based on the the expected fair value compared to the actual value. look at the yellow area to the upper right.
it calculates those values based on the win and excata pools
this play ( and not all) picked a nice overlay, the fair value was calculated to be $11.72 on the dollar it returnd $13.01 on the dollar
and why do you show bets in pennies
as far as I know you can't make bets in pennies
its just a book keeping thing. you can move all the decimal points to where you are comfortable. 0.20 could become 20.00

okay, thanks for the answer - I pretty much presumed that but wanted to make sure
but isn't the info that you can get from the tote or from your ADW on exacta probables often wrong and many times very wrong because of late betting - too late to make calculations?
