“QUICK
START” HAVING IMMEDIATE IMPACT AT MAYWOOD!
The new “quick start” in which horses are turned
loose about 175
feet before the old starting point, thus giving horses saddled
with outside
post positions a better shot of being a factor in races, appears
to be
having an immediate impact on the results of the races here at
Maywood
Park.
Over the 25 races contested last week at Maywood
Park horses
starting in the seven and/or eight posts still managed to be
part of the
trifecta a whopping 16 times.
Included in the winners from posts seven or eight
was Racy Traci
Place who captured last Thursday’s sixth race from the
seven-hole and
lit up the board at $67.80. That also produced an all-all
superfecta as the
combination of 7-4-all-all was paid out on.
The biggest fireworks were produced on Friday’s
card as one lucky
patron toted home one of the largest $1 trifecta payouts in
recent
Maywood Park history cashing for $11,777.50. Even with the rail horse
winning the race the number seven (9-1) and eight horse (45-1)
followed
up the pole sitter to produce a 1-7-8 combination and a huge
payday
for the patron at Lucky Magee’s in Joliet, Il.
Later that evening the ninth race produced another
big payday even
with 3-5 favorite winning the race. The seven horse (30-1)
managed to
finish second in the race while the eight horse (24-1) was third
producing
a payout of $1896.60 on the 2-8-7 combination.
Don’t be afraid to include those outside horses
now that the“Quick Start”
is producing BIG PAYOUTS here
at Maywwod Park.
