Hi Shaun,
Its hard to get a true feel of the profit potential using $1
Try using min of $2
This allows the maths to do its thing.

Heres another approach that I have found to work well, on keep in running for UK races.

.Target the 3rd fav only. 1 min till jump

.Target 2000m+races
(200m = a furlong & 1600m = a mile)
These distances give plenty of time for the market to move up & down.

.Place Lay bet first .

.Then make a win bet at 2 ticks higher for in running.

The reason why this works very well is that 3rd Fav win stat is only 15%
Therefore the chance of getting matched is extreemly high.

The profit per tranaction is approx 5%

If one is using the Faibot program, there is a "Keep" in running button which saves a lot of hassel of having to go into the Betfair Options section & changing the Keep option after ones bet has been placed.

Keep option can only be done on UK & Sth African events.

Cheers.
