Fairmount,
I think sort of dovetails into a little bit of mjellish explained in how he structures wagers.

(**Absolutely no guarantees I didn't transpose a number or two. If a mistake is made it is purely an oversight on my part.
6 of 15 Betting Favorites won. 2 Betting Favorites ran 2nd. 7 Betting Favorites failed to hit the super.
Do with this what you like. I think it says despite the difficulty in hitting the super its a play any handicapper has to take some shots at. Looks like there will be $ 11-12M in that super pool, so I don't think anyone gets cheated if they hit it.
Good luck
