The many horses at longer odds have not been given here.

Just the quoted horses above make over 140%. Yet the true odds for a winner in the race is 100%. No less. No more.

So much can go wrong with a horse between now and the end of October. If your horse doesn't run in the Cox Plate for any reason, 100% of your bet is lost.

Let's face it. The majority of horses on offer will not even make the final field. Money bet on those horses has been thrown away. As for Lonhro, Northerly and Sunline. Should everything go well with them over the next three months, there is every possibility you may get better odds about them on raceday. That's without having your money tied up for three months and being on a hiding to nothing should anything go amiss with the horse.

Surely you need to know at least the track conditions, the final field and form of the runners before making an informed bet.

We strongly suggest leaving this form betting alone.
