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 on Saturday, 10th. July, 2010 at the Flemington horse racing track.

Comments:
Punters betting favourites had an ugly day with just one $1.60 winner in R6 from the nine favourites. In R2 Our Baby Bonus was unplaced at its previous start and ran unplaced again. In R3 Tinamou was not successful dropping back in distance from 2040 metres to 1800 metres while in R7 the 35 days between 1200 metres runs did nothing for Elusive Touch.

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.
