That usually means singling a horse. Doing so will give you coverage in the more chaotic races to potentially hit a longshot. It would be even better if your single happened to be a bit contrarian.

Curious as to others opinion on this as well.
See?

I am glad I asked.

On Friday, I played both of the Pick 4s at Arlington. I won the first Pick 4 with 3 horses in each race. I won, but I lost a few dollars. It was chalky, and my price horses didn't show up.

In the second Pick 4 at Arlington, I got an 8/1 which got me a profit of $260+. (Not a huge kill by any stretch, but it was a win.) I also picked 3 horses per race.

I then played the Pick 4 at Charles Town (3, 2, ALL, 2) and won $60+. The ALL race got me a 22/1 winner. Unfortunately, the final leg had a 1/9 winner. (Wasn't near 1/9 when I put in my ticket.)

Then I played the late Pick 4 at Charles Town, three horses in each race, tried to beat a 1/5. I got through it, but I lost a few dollars in spite of an 8/1 winner. The other races were too chalky and included a 1/5 winner I didn't anticipate.

I'm just not convinced you have to single to make a decent profit in the shorter sequentials. Which is why I asked.

Very much looking forward to more feedback.
