Well that's a start. What you really want is what I call the "hopeful" horses. Those that have a little bit of support in a race where alot of the money has gone elsewhere. You'll find that many of these are "not quite right". They're generally around the $5-$11 mark. Remember only one other horse needs to beat them.

Really stay away from the longies. I wasn't going to work today but have. I've layed 18 for 2 accidents. My average matched price is $6.61. I've only layed one in double figures, and that was at my max of $11.00. It lost. There's plenty of chances below $10. You just need to do a bit of work to find them.
