Betting - Boxing dogs
The simplest approach to combination
betting is to box all of the dogs you feel are in with
a chance and make sure they are all covered. When using
this method, one must remember the importance of eliminating
non-contenders as the costs rise considerably with each
dog. This chart shows the cost per box based on how
many dogs are included:

However, in our example, dog 2 is pretty much a standout,
while only dog one is also a strong contender. Dogs
4 and 6 have an outside chance, while dogs 3 and 5 are
real long shots. The fifteen percent rule also applies
when calculating which dogs to throw out. With this
example, the strength of the two main dogs is such that
you would be as well to bet a reverse forecast on those
two dogs alone. Alternatively you could box the four
leading contenders and ditch the remaining two. This
would allow you to make a trifecta bet using 4 dogs.
