Betting Options
Can someone explain to me why tracks have so many similar betting options in every race? I believe I saw a pick 3, pick 4, pick 5 and Daily Double offered on the same race last week. The phrase "less is more" might be applicable here.
If I were in charge, I'd give the betting menu a complete overhaul. For example, I'd eliminate redundant bets like quinellas. I'd limit multi-race options down to 1 per race. For example, I'd have a daily double in the first and last races only. No other multi-race wagers would be available. In a race where a pick 5 starts, no other multi-race wagers would exist, and so on. I would even consider not allowing superfecta and trifecta bets to be available together.
