Becareful

We may have to agree to disagree on this one.
I am a firm beleiver that the Bookie sets the market while the tote is market driven. It is all very well to come up with the figures that you have but at the end of the day horses win on ability not on how much money is on them although it is always a good feeling to see a plunge on a horse after you have yours on.
I do my form, narrow a field down to 3/4 or less genuine chances and place the money on one or two of them. I try to clear a certain profit margin but I only take odds that I consider are "value to me"
I don't wait till the market is set and put my money on $2 favs because statistics show that 45% of them will win.
As a matter of interest from your figures what percentage of winners are priced at $10 or less?
