Far too many people mismanaging their money on these plays. And people
like clueless are ill-informed about his methods. It isn't about
selecting the 2/5 ML horse to win. (First as an aside try picking 1 horse
a day to just come in the money at a track. Doesn't have to win, just
come in 1,2,or 3 and it doesn't matter if it is a 5 horse field. It is
extremely difficult to do. Belmont and Saratoga have contests and
generally people are out by the 10th day or so. It isn't easy.)
Anyway with the Wizard his value is in the bet itself. Yes he lost today,
but if bet properly you shouldn't have taken a bath. I have been using
him for years and contacted once about the ratio between the Win and
Place, and the exotic bets. Below is verbatim as to what he suggested.

As far as win and place bets go, only bet the place if the win odds are
5-2 or more and the field size is at least 8 after scratches. I would
stick with $5.00 per unit. With $5.00 a unit I would wager $50.00 to win
and $50.00 to place. If you pass the place wager then increase your win
bet to $60.00 and keep the exacta units the same.

That's it in a nustshell guys. So today for me here is what I did.
$60 to win= 30X3.10 +33
$30 exacta 3/1,4= -60
$10 exacta 1,4/3= -20

Total loss -47
Not the end of the world. Trust me been using him for a long time ad he
makes you money better than the stockmarket over the long hall. In fact
if I can find the link to a great article written about him I will post it
here.

Let's getthem tomorrow!

    You have to play the win and/or place amounts with the correct number of
    units also. You just can't hammer the exotics and bet $2 to win and
    place. The bets have to be thought out so like today if his horse pays to
    win or place but he misses the exotics you don't get hammer. Play with
    your head guys, not with your heart or open credit lines! Good luck, I'll
    post his play for Thursday in a few...
