A cool twist I guess, but it still isn't "perfect". If "field" horses run 1-2-3-4-5-6, then the 7th-place horse would complete the exacta.

Putting the field in one of the two spots
could make this a bizarre wager.
Especially in the first spot.

step in the right direction... now if they can just get more runners in the future wager.

too bad they didn't have it in '07 when i would have cleaned up on it.

I kinda like it that way. If you really feel that of all the options offered there is only one horse you can imagine being a legit Derby threat then exacta boxing it with the field option could be a good play.

if they have the technology to offer a parimutual pool with 24 x 23 = 552 seperate entries for this exacta future, why are we suffering through the retarded "all other's" field entry and only 24 wagering interests to win?

what's preventing 441 (or whatever the number is) nominated horses each having a seperate wagering interest in the win future pool?

steve? btw? anyone?

If not 400 entries. Why not 50 or 75. Half the horses nominated haven't even started. only about 100 horses would actually be bet. But some of those could still be 300-400 to 1 with a chance.

still looking for any answers.
