B/L Question
 

To the group:

I have been long on betting the top 2 B/L. Just curious, does anyone go beyond that?

Are there any records of races where the 3rd B/L wins?

Thanks,

JDL

Hello Mr. Pagine,

As far as stats go I have the following which were previously posted.

For 100,000 races :

Missing Something
 

Is there more info?

Thanks

Sorry but I hit the submit by mistake before I completed the post.

Actually the stats I have are not on the Bl/Bl...sorry. You can compile your own stats from your records.

But IMO you are being too restrictive on going with the top 2 Bl/BL.
You are missing profitable opportunities.

I recommend going out further to the 3rd and 4th level Bl/BL. I find that horses from this level can pay high mutuals.

In addition check the posts on the Binder Improvement which gets horses
from the 4th and 5th BL/BL when the V/DC = 1 or 2.

Hope this helps,

Ernie

:)Good morning Mr. Pageline
I don't keep stats on this either, but I have a book that I record my working of races in and I just looked back over the past week. Here are some races I won by going lower than the top 2 BL. I go lower if the prices are good after I have compared the BL readouts with the velocity,and energy screens and now the new EL/2.0.
05/06 Kentucky Oaks tier 3 win #12 for 14.60
05/07 CD race 9 tier 4 win #1 for 28.60 exact with tier 1 #3 for 144.20
05/13 EVD race 4 tier 3 win #6 for 10.00
05/14 CD race 7 tier 3 win #3 for 9.40, exacta with tier 4 #5 for 87.20
EVD race 9 win #6 for 29.60, exacta with tier 5 #1 for 158.80
05/15 CD race 9 exacta tiers 4 and 3 # 9 and 6 for 59.00
I would say yes, you should be looking at more than tiers 1 and 2. IMHO
I hope this helps some.:)
