My belief is to leave out the favourite and back the rest of the field. As we all know in small fields the favourite will lose more time than win.

By my calculations, if you'd invested that $100 at AusTOTE, after up to 5% commission, you would have netted at least $210.74.
Those runners were showing $4.20, $5.85 & $23.95.
With traditional near 20% rakes, backing more than 1 runner in a race to win is typically a mug-play.
But now with AusTOTE and Betfair that gambit invites serious consideration.
