Default Lay The First 2 Favs

Does anyone have any thoughts about laying the first 2 favs in each race to a fixed liability, have you tried it?

This can work brilliantly if on can identify the races where the Fav has a strong chance of falling over.

One method is target races where the Don Scott has his fav at 3.00+
This identifies the race to target.

We then Dutch Lay the Betfair top 2 live market Favs

I read a post on another forum about it where they basicly dismissed the idea.

Good for "them".
My Betfair a/c says otherwise.

I was looking at some stats that say the first 2 win about 45% of races, the 2nd/3rd fav are less but with a higher price, i may have to do some more checking on this.

shaun i have been keeping record of bookie top 4 in betting for just on a week fav has won 31% and top4 75.4% and if you backed each 1 you would be down $23.50 if you laid the fav and backed 2nd 3rd 4th you would be down $12.50 out of 180 races ive done all based on best tote div.
