If the ticket would have paid $100 ( the $1 parlay computes well under $100) for the dollar there would have been no complaints yet it paid almost double that.
At first glance I also thought you had the $1 combo as did Arky. Long term though, if one of the first 2 races had and 8:1 or 10:
shot the ticket would have easily paid $500. I'm glad for you that you covered the 6:1 shot in the last leg.
Shake off the small loss and move forward !
