During my recent webinar I mentioned the fact that I heard Bob Cochran, at a seminar[around 89-90] give out an angle he discovered involving the #2 APV ranked hose. Bob stated that he had discovered the when there was a difference of 1.40[or more] between the #1 and #2 APV horses the #2 was hitting the exacta at a good rate. For example the #1 horse APV is 1.76 and the #2 is 1.25. You would divide the 1.25 into the 1.76 getting a difference of 1.408. This qualifies the number 2 as an exotic play. This peeked my interest so I decided to conduct a survey to see if it was still relevant in todays' racing. I found 100 horses that met the requirement and here are the results,
Horses won placed showed off board.
100 12 16 8 64.
For those that wager on exactas and tris you may want to considered these horses in your plays along with the #1 APV as outlined in the 55% manual. These plays do not occur everyday. For those playing only 1 track a day[like me] don't get upset if you don't see 1 for several days. There will also be days when you may find 3 -4 on a card. Those playing multiple tracks should find more plays daily. Anyway there you have it folks. Have fun with it and hopefully increase your hit rate and profit.
