This weeks punt to win has a rant about why all horses often ease in the betting.
I would go further than this and say that the bookies are too lazy to do the form! That's why they set the opening books to over 140%. Then they just let all the horses drift acording to what's bet.
This is a good thing for smart punters. If the bookies did the form and set truer odds in their opening books, there would be far fewer opportunities to back horses paying overs.
