I guess one has to do the figures over say 150 past results.

Generally the exacta has to pay more than double to that of a quinella to justify betting them , because one is betting double for the same coverage as a quinella bet,e.g. 1 & 2 in any order, if it comes out the same or less to outlay percentage wise , one may as well bet the quinellas instead of exactas .

One would have to the sample over say 150 bets to get a realistic answer to that question.

I feel Exactas come into their own if one has a stand-out to win with say 1 or 2 others to place 2nd , but then it boils down to SR of ones first selection which is not easy.

If one has a look at some past results , the majority of exactas pay less than double to that of Quinellas , one will see the odd Exacta paying huge overs , this may be in favour of ones 150 race sample & it maybe not.

I personally feel the overs will not be great enough to make up for all the under value results. But I hope for everyone's sake that I am wrong.

Cheers.
