You cant make money from blindly backing or laying favourites so how do we distinguish a good fav from a bad fav?

Where do we look first? Form?  Yes that applies sometimes but typically its hit miss and as a layer you always want to be laying at the lowest possible price.

Can we use stats? If these are proven over a long period of time then surely that trend will continue...

Will try a simple exercise today, not betting, merely a watching brief and see if stats can determine a good un from a bad un.....

For each race will apply filters to determine its chances of winning as a percentage!!!

I bet we're all hoping that zippy enlightens us to what makes a good and a bad favourite !

Unless it's the finishing result, that is.

Really? You would judge something after a single day? Crazy

A bad fav could be an all the way last time out winner - easy lead - but this time may be taken on for the lead

Could be an off the pace winner given a few front runners but now no pace

Could be the draw

Could be  trainer out of form


The list is endless my friend
