Win Betting
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 $1,000,000 2YO. Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes Day horse racing horse racing meeting held on Saturday, 20th. February, 2010 at the Caulfield. horse racing track. At this race meeting the $400,000 Group 1 Oakleigh Plate was also held.

Comments:
Punters betting favourites had a winning meeting with Tootsie $5.00, Rightfully Yours $2.70, Set For Fame $2.50 and Denman $1.26 all winning. Denman and Set For Fame were last start winners while Tootsie finished second at its previous start. Righfully Yours was first up after a spell of 105 days. So punters who took the short odds were successful on this occasion. In R1 Seeking Attention, which ran seventh at its previous start ran eight as a $2.60 favourite.

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.
