..and if you win 7 out of ten of those races Becareful you have won what? Peanuts for the risk. You may as well buy Telstra shares that pay a fully franked 17%.
Besides, the "champion"[?]in Syd. almost lost it.
Between $1.70 and $7.10 lays an ocean of betting ground [as you know] to look for winners in. What do you suggest, we only have two betting camps? Those looking for $2.00 and less and those looking above $7.00? I'll take the between thanks and good luck with your below $2.00 shortners!

My point was and I think it valid if you read between the lines, is that accepting very short odds on selections in fields which are often very open races [and how open was yesterday in Syd. and Melb. will runaway T/Bias on both] the Bookies and Tabs will have a field day. As they did Yesterday.
Bias and openness considered, $1.70 was an underlay as they where on most of the other favourites [that lost by the way]. Anyone who took the $1.70 on that winning bet, lost chasing other favotites [Lets not get carried away will hindsight beting as if the $1.70 was the only bet].

Cheers.
