I posted a question regarding Late mail recently and was grateful to receive some interesting data in response. I wonder does anyone have any significant results for the PLACE? My observation so far is that there appears to be a greater than normal % of placegetters, but not sure if that is just a flash in the pan.

I'm dragging this post up again because I think it's worthwhile.

Betfair are on the verge of introducing a new Betfair SP product, different to the old one.
So I think it could be a winner at Betfair prices.

I'm about to embark on a study, and I'll post back the results.

Yesterday for example:

Lay the win, back the place.

47 selections

Win Loss 27.90
Place Loss 4.20

Win LOT 59.36%
Place LOT 8.94%

I reckon that it's a good lay system for the win and a good bet for the place system with Betfair.

A little birdy told me that the late mail selections are those that have had largeish early morning bets with corporate bookies.

Last weekend to follow...
