Horses shorter than $3 didn't do well and when they did win they were too short to make any money from them. Horses longer than $7 didn't seem to do that great, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't produce the odd longshot winner in the future however. I must say though, that based on tests that I have done in the past, if you want to bet on horses longer than $7, you should maybe look for horses which have finished in the first 4 at their last FOUR starts.
