Yeah, sounds logical, the money has got to show up somewhere doesn't it? I was thinking about things like bloodcounts (the only reason I know anything about them is what I've read, no personal experience at a stable) where the only ones who would know would amount to a couple of people. So starting price tells us that there's something we don't know.

Starting price and the market fluctuations. They disappear in a blink - quite literally. You can take advantage of them though.

In general the more the real market differs from your rated price, the less accurate your rated price is. The market rules here I'm afraid. Everything else in variance.

Morp 6, 10 Gold Bundle. Unusually large (in relative terms) lay bet taken very quickly.

Nice. Pop a lay in one or two ticks below the smart money, and trade out in running.
