That is what I want to hear. It is something that I have no experience nor the means to find out short of doing it. I have ancedotal evidence of 20% but I have also seen numerous occassions of the tote beating Betfair. The two are totally different. The tote is directly proportional to the money placed. Betfair is market based and is a can of worms. I want and need to get a comparsion between the two.

You are saying that to your experience the difference is a sliding scale from -10% to a say +50% at 100:1 This I can live with but I would live better if you could tell me approximately when they cross over i.e. at $4.50 a tote horse finishes with the same strike rate as a $4.50 betfair horse. We are talking average here. And a gut feeling is better than nothing. The crossover must be close.
Thanks Beton
