Third Favourites
s/r 13.59%
Ave div $6.07

Ave Div $5.14

These figures are based on tote rankings at the jump.

Thanks for that Chrome.

Is that figure for second and third together correct? I would have thought that backing both would give a higher strike rate?

Yes, it's correct thorns.
You get the better strike rate of the second fave and the worse strike rate of the third fave as an average, not together.

As another example, faves have a 30% s/r.

Add that to second and third faves and you get 21.29% strike rate, because it's the average.

This is the strike rate of the horses not strike rate per race.

Cheers for clearing that up, I knew there must have been a logical reason for it.

The figure should read for 2nd & 3rd Favs.
19.43% + 13.59% = 33.02% SR

Av $5.14
-15.20% LOT

Cheers.

Except you double the amount of bets (2nd & 3rd pick), so the strike rate is halved. The original figure of 16.5% is correct.
