The stats reveal that Favs in Handicap events win less than non-H/cap races.

So the suggestion is to think twice about following favs in these events.
These events are well known to have winners with wild form figures thus producing a number of outsiders

One of the highest figures for favs, is market favs fist career start in Maiden events approx 33%.
This looks to be weird for something that has never raced in its life & flies in the face of anything to do with form.

Country & Prov Fav stats are slightly higher than metro events , mainly because the field sizes are usually smaller.
Their av price is also lower.

Cheers.
