Horse Tourney GPX
Got lucky and nailed this one @ Horse Tourneys today. The amount my selections paid is pretty low for a winner--usually you total less than $60, and you might not even cash.
I'm not complaining, though. I'll take it!

The "Exact Five" which is what they call it there @ MNR...here's what it paid:
$1.00 Exact 5 (4-ALL-ALL-ALL-ALL) Paid $5.00
Can that possibly be correct? It was a 10 horse field, so that makes no sense.
If it is correct...the over ALL - boxed with 9 horses in the other 4 positions--would cost a fortune. They must have some kind of betting gimmick where , if you select "all" it only costs a dollar per "all" selection. I have never bet that Hi-Five wager...but if you did have to pay $1.00 per "way" (as they say in keno) here's what THAT would cost:
$1 Superfecta-5: 4 / 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10 / 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10 / 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10 / 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9,10
Bets: 3,024 Total: $3,024
Obviously I'm missing something here. It's the last @ Mountaineer, take a look & tell me if I'm gettin "Biden" disease

Place horse odds were 129-1. Total pool only $4,709.00. Obviously, no one had that long shot in the 2nd position.

If they don't have a carry over, is it possible that everyone that had the 4 won. It didn't matter what you had behind it.

Can I make some bad @$$ advertising? I make everything with the 20 year old MICROSOFT PAINT SHOP. Photo Shop and the "pro" stuff--swear you need an engineering degree to figure it out. I never could.
MS discontinued Paint Shop...so I hoarded a couple copies.
Here's the ad...but it's still a few days from d-day. I just wanted to show off This one is .png, but I also have the jpeg, Mike

Greg, I never stick my nose into anyone's business, but since I like all your products and you seem like a nice guy, can I make a tiny suggestion?
I do like the new ad, but the last line "Still gets the winners at the same low price" immediately made me think it gets just low priced favorites.
If you change just one word, in my opinion, it would sound a little better, since you're trying to stress the low cost, right. How about "Still gets the winners for the same low price"? Just change 'at' to 'for'. You can certainly poo poo my idea if you want.

Greg:
Love the moniker/programming label. Much like the "Big Purple"! Very cool sticker for your upcoming new program.

Has anyone used TODAY'S RACING DIGEST?
The Late Tim Osterman used to produce "fast figs", a proprietary speed-type rating. TRD still produces those FAST FIGS daily, although in the past I have tried them, but really wasn't that impressed with the results.
I got the bright idea to create my own "figs". I did...and incorporated them in a program. My numbers, I called "DEMON SPEED"
Here's the small problem I had/have with my Demon Speed:
IT SUCKED
Other than that--it was a great program
Here's today's Fast Figs for the 8th @ LRC. You can get today's or tomorrow's Figs, and this particular 'cappers Best Bet--free to try for 1 day. I personally don't use them--but give them a free try if you like.
I looked at the race--the "Best Bet" FRATELLI will probably go off @ less than even odds. In my opinion, that's probably the worst bet on the card.
