Title: How much per and tri?
Post by: Wilderness on December 05, 2011, 12:08:17 PM
These were the payoffs for the second heat of the 1942 Hambletonian.
 The 1st and 2nd choice finished-out.

 "Colby Hanover was still the public's choice at even money, then 2 to 5, and Cannon Ball held his prestige at four to one"

 Any ideas on comparable exotic pay-offs in a recent years Hambletonian (given tne larger pools).

Maybe your computer is f-c-k-d up.

I'm not your tutor or even a forum moderator.

Perhaps you should ask Gary for help.

Looks like somebody got out from the wrong side of the bed.

You started the thread and I asked for the exotic payouts.

Is it that difficult for you to give out the payouts?

Never mind and thanks for your precious time

Have yourself a good day.

My guess is given the hi-jnx at the Big M, the payouts would be much less than expected.
The oldest program I have is from 1948, and the only exotic they had back then was the DD.

hal,
      Here's the 2011 Hambo payoffs:

1 Broad Bahn  George Brennan 14.60 7.00 5.60 
6 Whiskey Tax  Randall Waples  26.00 11.60 
7 Opening Night  John Campbell   6.40 
Win, Place, Show Pool: $309,954 
Wager Type  Numbers/Payouts Pool 
Exacta  (1-6 $462.40) $224,443 
Trifecta  (1-6-7 $3,700.40) $207,376 
end of quote

If exotics existed in 1942, I would "assume" payoffs of at least twice as large.

Owner Bill Strang owned the 2YO and ill-fated Volo Song, whom won the Tompkins Trot at Good Time Park.

When The Ambassador won he was apparently in shock:

(from Aug 19, 1942 Harness Horse)

Naturally there were disappointments, but there were reoccurrences that surpassed all disappointments in connection with the great stake, none exceeding the good sports-manship and liberality of William H. ''Bill'' Strang owner of the winner. After the excitement had subsided, Mr. Strang walked into the office of Race Secretary Saunders, asking for and filling out a cheque of generous proportions, which Assistant Secretary Paul Keim cashed for the Brook-lyn owner. Taking a sheaf of bills that would not go in the pocket of a plasterer's apron, he walked down the line handing each one of Ben White's colored caretakers a bill that would buy a small piece of property in the colored quarters in Lexington. It developed a few minutes later, that remembering the boys was just the preliminary plans of the Brooklyn man in his efforts to show his appreciation of his colt's victory in winning the Hambletonian Stake, as Guy Heasley, the efficient book keeper and master of transportation of the Ben White Stable emerged from his portable office with a smile that would not grow smaller as he exhibited a substantial cheque. The next member of the White stable to show his remembrance from Mr. Strang was Ben himself, who modestly showed friend Mr. Strang's financial thoughts and appreciation of his victory with The Ambassador which was in the form of a cheque for five thousand dollars ($5,000), not the customary ten percent, but twenty-five percent, a most generous remembrance by an owner.
