Suppose a posted selection ends up being a late scratch. Sometimes after scratching that horse and re-calcing the race some other horse or horses become selections. Seeing the mtp in cases like that helps give the original and subsequent selections that I didn't get to post context.

Hope I managed to type most of that out in a way that makes sense,

OK thanks. I get it.

Well this is niceou nd:

My wife bets all the BC Classics. She has a weird picking practice.

She is betting $2 on Medina Spirit. I ask her if it was because Baffert is the trainer and she said "who's Baffert?"

i was curious how much your picks would return using my bet sizes for win positions only and eliminating the favorite.

jeff had the first post so i used his picks for the races I downloaded.

using my bet sizes he would have a profit of 17%.

The bets I did on Saturday cost me $53.20 total but the only bets I cashed were a Win/Show bet in R4 on for $3.20 and the Superfecta in the BC Classic for 20 cents (Canadian minimum on Superfectas if 10 cents) returned $32.11

All in all a negative Saturday ()but I probably should have loaded up on the Super in the Classic if I had a good feeling about it
