Was a weekly, often bi-weekly visitor of the Fannie Bay racecourse myself Davez, me old man's work put us up in this ripper house on East Point Road, tennis court, pool it was called 'The Plantation'. And the best part, less then a km away from the track, there was always a bookie on course so could get "board odds" for every race, every day, it was great. The $5 shanks on Wednesdays were an absolute bonus. As for framing a market; it is very subjective. I go about things a different way, if i think a horse will win i trust the powers that be to come up with its' price, the main aim is to get the best odds available on every bet you make.
