Of course, but if you select a horse that wins, its got nothing to do with staking or odds.. You'll still lose regardless what odds or stakes you put...

All the odds or staking does is limit the potential losses on the bank. I was going for broke, and I got what I was going for. Plus its just monopoly money And I was going on price, putting my faith in the market doing the work for me. So price would tell me what isn't likely to win.

If I limited my liabilities to no more than 5% of the bank, I'd still be alive, but again I was going for broke and trying to make back the bank quickly.

My next exercise will be maidens, and I will limit the bank to about 20% this time.
