The lone winning ticket was purchased through a parimutuel hub based in New Jersey.

Roger Friggin Stein brings in a huge price in the finale and somebody hits it?

I had that winner on my P6 ticket but had not even noticed the trainer! Oh my!

I put in a $64 ticket but did not play any of my selections in any other way. Do others play the other sequential exotics with the same picks?

What about straight up win bets on your selections? If there are more than two or three selections in each leg this would require very long odds. What about playing the most likely winner in each leg?

Did you see the smile on the trainers face as he headed to the winners circle. He didn't seem surprised at all..............

He is probably shopping for a new car today...........

Roger Stein has a radio show right-or at least he did? Maybe he can comment on it. The horse figured but I was scared away by the long lay-off and trainer stats---the FTS knocked me out earlier but it still would have been nice to cash a little on 5/6.

Not sure what could have been used on the FTS, maybe someone else uses a program they'd like to share that listed the horse, say even in the top 5

Anybody want to take a ride to New Jersey with me? We'll split the gas and tolls and there will be a modest charge if you wish to stop to eat or go to the bathroom.

There's a way to figure out how many 'consolations' were hit, that can determine if the winner had a huge ticket or small one. If you hit a pick 6 on a HUGE ticket (say 10k or more) you have probably 50 or 100 consolations. So, with a little math, someone here can determine how many consolations were hit and how many of those conso's were likely to be people OTHER than the winning ticket.

Get to work you math geniuses!

I used the first-starter, though not through any computer program. Basically I thought that none of the horses that had started were any good, so I was shopping around. I'm less interested in firsters when the ones that have run look like they can. For a few years in the 1990s I was about 1 for 50 in the Breeders' Cup and that one was Lit du Justice, so I have a soft spot for him as a sire. And as an intangible, it seems like a lot of first-starters have been winning maiden claiming races all over the country and paying well in the past couple weeks -- certainly at Oaklawn, which is my primary track this time of year.

I didn't use the 6-5 shot that won the sixth, though. <blush>

Deduct the track take from the total pool , deduct the one winner from the total, divide the number by the amount of the 5/6 payouts, and it should be the number of 5/6 tickets sold. I doubt there is any way to ascertain how many people cashed those as the lone winner must have had multiples of 5/6, plus possibly some others. Do your own math - genius
