Horse Racing Favourites
Do horse racing favourites win when the money is on? Do favourites lose when they ease in the betting? Are favourites more successful over longer distances than 1000 metres? Do favourites lose on wet tracks? Do favourites lose when first up from a spell? Are horse racing favourites worse bets in large fields?
These questions and more will be answered on a regular basis as we update the results of horse racing favourites on
a regular basis.
We'll concentrate on Saturday races in Melbourne. These results over the long term should be comparable with results of Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide races on Saturdays.
Here are the results from the horse racing meeting held at Flemington horse racing track on Saturday, 10th. April, 2010.

Comments:
Punters backing favourites had a solid losing day, with only two favourites, Eclair Mystic $2.80 in R1 and Rundle $3.00 in R6, winning from the eight races. Both these favourites were last start winners. Three of the six losing favourites, Instructor, Grand Duels and Rockpecker in races 5, 7 and 8, were unplaced at their previous start. They were all unplaced again. Punters were so forgiving they sent out Rockpecker as $4.00 favourite in R8 after it finished second last in a field of 14 only a week earlier!

You
Need Top Odds
It's unlikely you'll get a high enough
strike rate backing short priced tote favourites
and poor value tote horses to make up for
big unders on the tote. Especially in Sydney and Melbourne metropolitan racing on Saturdays.
If you regularly get poor odds you increase your chances of losing money.
It's very unlikely you'll make a long term profit by consistently backing short
priced tote favourites.
