[Derby] Betting a number and betting on a biased racetrack.
Terry responded to Miami Sid about betting the #4 horse in the fourth race by saying if you bet 2WP on all the #4 horses on the 12 race card you would have come close to doubling your money and I laughed. Then I recalled an experience that Andy Beyer wrote about in his first book when he noticed the extreme bias at Suffolk Downs favoring the inside part of the track and reported that the #1 horse won the first 8 races on the card finishing 2nd in the final race.

That one didn't come in, but a $2WP on all #4 horses all 12 races (the venerable 4 horse method) returned $79.60 for the $48 investment.
Food for thought in these trying times. _______________________________________________ Derby mailing list Posting: Derby at lists.derbylist.com Sub/Unsub: http://lists.derbylist.com/listinfo.cgi/derby-derbylist.com
