I used to have some success many years ago at the trots and gallops by backing horses that the bookies opened much shorter than the pre post markets. A free tip from the bookie in essence. It didn't necessarily mean the price was always shorter ultimately as many blew in the betting - as nearly every runner does anyway.
I am now not in a position to get to the track but online bookies like IAS have early prices as do Sportingbet for feature events. By comparing their first assessments with the prepost markets some "free tips" are available.
Presently I am looking at feature races where the IAS or Sportingbet prices are at least one point shorter than TAB fixed odds.
I will post the selections after all the IAS prices are up at about 10.30. Last week there were three selections for one winner - Flowerdrum @ 6.00. I ignore runners quoted at longer than 10.00 by IAS or Sportingbet.
Takes no form study and about ten minutes with two browsers open - easy.
