dngu047 - For MY betting the highest TAB is better that the IAS offerings for a number of reasons:
1. I do most of my betting during the week at the moment and the IAS Divi+ only operates on a few midweek meetings so 95% of my bets wouldn't be covered.
2. I bet on longer odds horses ($8 and up) so in the majority of cases the TAB pays better that SP or Top Fluct.

If you are betting only on Saturday Metro meetings then Divi+ would be a definite option. Only drawback is that you have to bet 1 minute before sched jump which can be a problem if your horse is close to your betting limit on all TABs.

If you were betting on shorter priced horses then SP/Top Fluct is often better than TAB - of course with Top Fluct you have to bet about 30 mins prior to jump so you really need the bookie price to be at least at your limit - that way you know you are going to get the price you want and if the TF is higher then that is a bonus.

SHY - Haven't heard of anyone offering to beat best TAB place div. It would be nice if Read would offer 1/4 Win SP for the place.
