I have watched a few UK race markets, and you would only really want to bet on races over a mile. The pool goes from about $500,000 to 2.5 million from the start of the race to the finish.... The odds fluctuate around to crazy levels providing many trading opportunities..... Lots of money getting thrown around just trying to get matched. Would be great to be a part of it....

Also got told by Betfair staff that I would not be able to bet this way via their phone service either... Did he get it wrong.? Either way, I don't think I would like to sit the on the phone for 4 hours getting somebody to place bets for me.....
