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.

Comments:
Punters backing favourites had a small winning day at top fluctuation bookmaker odds, with three of the 10 favourites winning. Two of the favourites finished second seven days and 14 days earlier, while punters were on the money with Paparazzi Dreamer which won at its first race start. In R3 War Ends had a freshen up of 66 days and was unplaced. While in R6 Ishant dropped back in distance from 2350 metres to 2000 metres and in R8 Two Hills also dropped back in distance from 1410 metres to 1200 metres and finished second.

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.
