Different strokes for different folks...I say.
That's why I prefer verticals.

There are some disadvantages, but if I understand a single race really well, I'd way rather try to crush that race in the exacta, triple, and super than hooking my key horse(s) up in horizontal races where I bring no real special value oriented insight to the table. Of course if I love a horse in the 1st leg and 3rd leg, I might also play a pick 3.
