No Tracks
Nope. No tracks in Vegas but plenty of race books...

NorCalGreg- did you notice that on the 30th when you played the pick-5 that the pick-4 using the same last 4 races paid $401 for $.50. That first leg of the pick 5 getting split with the fav and 4 scratches really cut into that pool.

Yeah, I did notice that Bennie. I was expecting a much bigger payoff. Also....their pick-5 is a "jackpot" bet, which means you'll get even less (unless you hold the lone ticket)
Just fooling around right now...PLATINUM shows the total of each horse's last 3 Bris speeds.
Here are the top last-3 Bris speed rating in each race @ Presque.
PRESQUE
HIGH COMBINED LAST-3 BRIS SPEED
1ST - BLACK TIE N' TAILS 4-1
2ND - SECRET MILITAIRE 2-1
3RD - DIMATE 8/5
4TH - BETWEEN HERE AND COOL 2-1
5TH - ASK STACY 8/5
6TH - BEER TAP 2-1
7TH - CAPTAIN MAD JACK 2-1
8TH - COAL MINER'S SON 2-1

Now let's add A FILTER:
Must be in the top-2 Platinum Power in race:
2ND - SECRET MILITAIRE 2-1 Y
5TH - ASK STACY 8/5 Y
6TH - BEER TAP 2-1 Y
7TH - CAPTAIN MAD JACK 2-1 Y
Looks like we end up with all favorites zzzzzzzzzzz.

Prairie Meadows
Let's take our chances @ PRM...not much on win bets--but the pick-3's & 4's are sometimes easy pickens.
I really like this track, as well as Arizona Downs. They fit Pace-View handicapping well (you know, cheap claimers  )
Good Luck

Hit the Pick-5! Now my kids can go to college!
(that won't even pay for the college parking lot slip that you hang on your rear-view mirror)

...this was interesting
from https://www.quora.com
Has a casino ever gone bust because of someone on a winning streak?
"Yes - and spectacularly.
In 1948 the Thunderbird Casino in Las Vegas went bust on opening night. Its owners, Marion Hicks and Clifford Jones, didn’t have enough cash on hand to cover a winning streak of $145,000 at the Craps tables. In desperation they approached Meyer Lansky for a loan. Lansky obliged, but took a majority of the stock, leaving Hicks and Jones with 20% between them. Lansky and his associates then skimmed so much of the take that the Thunderbird never made a profit or paid a dividend until the mobsters were forced out in 1956."

PARX BEST BETS-PLATINUM
Only counted 25 scratches today at Parx...
Just read in LINKED IN--Derek Simon is giving up on horse racing.
Gee....I wonder why.
I'll give the Platinum program's BEST BETS for Parx today, since
the ML odds look decent on some.

What's wrong in doing over 100% ROI?
It is better to have a short price than a long face, greg.
