Winning the Pick 4

1. Play only if you have 18 or fewer combinations. This will allow either two selections in each race, or three selections in two races , two in one, and one in the fourth.
2. If you have favorites in two of the four races, pass the race unless one of your picks in the other two races is at least 9-1.
3. If you have favorites in three of the races, pass the race unless your horse in the other race is at least 15-1.
4. If you have four favorites, bet one small ticket or pass the bet.
