Good Beauty is about to run in Race 9 at Hong Kong Sha Tin.

**JBEX** · 06-21-20, 07:46 AM

so I guess things came in late (literally lol) last night hart..good beauty (picked that one also in my thread) missed 2nd by half a head @ 30 and was beaten by the 2 favorites..you could have hit 2 "place quinellas" with the betting options out there (linking ours w/2 favs)..for $2 one paid about $32 and the other $34 if they were in us $

I had an 8.7 winner in my thread and I believe (besides good beauty) 1 or 2 other placings at shorter prices..only mentioning cause i'm bringing other stuff up and as i've said before mine won't be graded

**harthebar** · 06-21-20, 07:51 AM

Rough one at Hong Kong. They all ran well but awful rides
I didnt get notices till late. Got to look into stable

Hong Kong has a lot of volume most of its Asian but it’s still very liquid

think they do more volume in 1 race there than a whole card at saratoga

I think while the card is going on tvg shows it (if you can't sleep lol).. I coincidentally stumbled on it for the first time today but not sure how I arrived there.. somewhere on the site hkjc.com/english

I'll take a peek at it again later.. you'd probably find it poking around on there

**JBEX** · 06-21-20, 10:21 AM

given in hong kong $.. think us conversion around 13%

**gauchojake** · 06-21-20, 11:02 AM

The way the show wagers payout at this track throws an interesting angle into the betting.

plusses and minuses.. it does dampen down the place prices but with the size of the fields there, nice to get something for 3rd.. how it compares to just getting a show payoff here I'm not sure.. I'm not a fan of show betting..they must have thought that out there a long time ago

**JBEX** · 06-21-20, 01:32 PM

when you do the conversion think it comes to about 14 -15
million us$ per race so my average was too high..they get up around $20M on occasion ..

includes horizontals

gotta love odds difference 1st 2 lol.. 1st race as mentioned easiest of winners.. my horse actually won R7 so we were the exacta about $22 ($2).. missed 2nd by a nose R10.. don't think that effects place mutuel.. they are really watered down with the 3 way split

today

risk $20/ return $19.40

overall

13 plays (3 cards)

risk $52 /return $47.10

average price 20 (rounding off)

6/21 @ sha tin

R2 #13 gold {2/14} (11) $6.80
R7 #4 so we {6/14} (3.2)
R8 #4 more {6/8} (2.9)
R9 #4 good {3/14} (30) $14.60
R11 #6 wind {6/14} (49)

{finish /field size} (price)
price = odds +1

#4 good missed 2nd by half a head
#6 wind only 3 lengths off winner and not best of trips

today

risk $20/ return $21.40

overall

18 plays (4 cards)

risk $72/ return $68.50

average price 20 (rounding off)

My stable corrected getting updates in morning again ... it was such a bad day Belmont for it to go hay wire

**JBEX** · 06-24-20, 07:20 AM

no problem..ok good

**Chi_archie** · 06-24-20, 08:32 AM

dabbled in some foreign tracks but I just can't do it with so many of them that have the same color numbers or very poor tracking of #'s in who is in the lead ect.
