Hey Merriguy,

I do e/w bets and find them quite effective because if the horse you bet on doesnt win but comes place well you get your money back, usually with a bit of interest. Howeverif you do a e/w bit and the horse doesnt win or place well you lose out, but thats the risk!
So I guess if you are more confident on the horse coming place instead of a win, it is a good idea to put more on the place then the win.

I think what umrum said is a good point, back for the place if it is paying more than $4,
