i'm going in with some family and friends online for a pick-4 that totals about $400, and then I'm limiting my plays to a decent wps wager on mauralakana and a couple of 4-horse exacta boxes in races like the sprint and mile and classic.

all in all, personally i'll probably spend only about $170-200. I am going to be placing all my bets at the beginning of the day then spending the afternoon watching in my hotel room in chicago -- it's one of the days when i watch racing that i COULD bet lots, but i don't need to because it's such an entertaining day anyway.

Probably about $400-$600. And no, I can't afford to lose it.

Budgeting $100 per race...much of that will be in pools with my friends on Pick 3's and Pick 4 tickets.

That I do. Bet 5600 on the BC last year. Shooting for somewhere close to 7 this year. No guts, no glory.
