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 Moonee Valley horse racing meeting held on Saturday, 28th. November, 2009.

Comments:
A tough day for favourites with just one winner. In R2 the favourite, Doubtful Jack, was unplaced at its previous start. It was unplaced again. While in R4 Miss Lily Rose was unplaced at its previous start, had 25 days between races and rose in distance from 1700 metres to 2040 metres. Under those circumstances it was a great run to finish 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.
