It's rare I Lay the Field of 10 runners or less.

So yesterday I had a look at races with 6 to 10 runners.

If the selections that were single figures on Betfair's exchange (the Win section) were bet S.P, then the results were:

77 selections from 19 races for a return of $95.49 - this is a POT of 24%. The results from each venue were:

Mt Gambier
Outlay of $23
Return of $32.00

Ballarat
Outlay of $13
Return of $14.69

Hawkesbury
Outlay of $17
Return of $19.47

Pinjarra
Outlay of $5
Return of $4.66

Rocky
Outlay of $19
Return of $24.67

From the 19 races the winner was struck in 18 of them.

I also looked at quinellas. From the 19 races there were 16 that were successful.

The outlay was $121, and the return was $173 (Unitab divvies) for a POT of 42%.

Even though there's been only 19 races the results are not unimpressive, especially considering the low numbers of runners per race. Obviously the strike rate is quite high as would be expected.
