Bountiful Betting
Before I discuss that interesting affair, however, let me briefly explain what a "negative pool" is: simply put, it is any pari-mutuel pool in which 75-80 percent (or more) of the total amount wagered is controlled by a single horse or entry. The term “negative” relates to the fact that the track must dip into its own coffers should the pool favorite be successful, e.g. finish first in the win pool, second or better in the place pool or third or better in the show pool. The track does this, of course, because there is a government-mandated minimum payoff of $2.10 (or, in some places, $2.20) on every winning $2 wager.
Without boring everyone with the specifics, suffice it to say that in recent years, thanks to net pool pricing, these track “giveaways” have become more prevalent, hence reducing the effective takeout in instances where the heavy favorite is successful and providing for potential windfall profits when the favorite fails.
Which brings us back to Thursday’s first race at Big Sandy:

Notice that $54,241 of the $64,018 (84.7 percent) in the show pool was wagered on the 1/1A entry, which consisted of Goodday and All Drama.

Personally, I felt both horses were vulnerable, but, regardless of one’s feelings, this was a great race to find alternative show bets. I settled on 6-Say Toba Sandy, 5-Full of Gut and 3-Primal Baby (in that order) and was amply rewarded.

Do yourself a favor and watch for these kinds of opportunities; in my opinion, they are among the best bets at the track.
Derek Simon’s Free Weekend Win Factor Plays
Because I haven’t posted many free plays or offered much in the way of race analysis recently (my horrible Preakness “insights” notwithstanding), I thought I would change that this week. Below are some races to consider playing on Friday and Saturday:

BET(S): WIN on 1 at even (1-1) odds or greater.

BET(S): WIN on 1 & 3.

BET(S): WIN on 4 at odds of 6-5 or greater.

BET(S): SHOW on 1 (if 75% or more of the show pool is controlled by 5).

BET(S): WIN on 2 at even odds (1-1) or greater. EXACTA 2-7.

BET(S): WIN on 4 at 6-5 or greater.

Yup ! sure you will post the English version of history, I am also waiting for this. It sounds interesting, and I already have the positive vibes related to the song. The little self-confidence and determination to do and think out of the box must be a sign of success. The essay writing service reviews support the artists.
