T-CANE, Since I'm alive in the double with the #2, I don't have to make a win bet on it to make $ on this race. Don't hget me wrong, I may still bet it to win &/or place. It has 3/1 odds now & may pay $3.00 to place. That can cover what I laid out on my doubles wager.
I am also going to look for at Lefty's horses for another contender & use #2 on the bottom with that horse or horses on top. I like to look at the probable payouts & then put together my bets.
