Can anyone please enlighten me?
I am increasingly baffled by many thousands of pounds, placed at odds around 1.1 and below suddenly disappearing at the start of a race.
I can understand money being there "in play" to catch a horse which goes that low and goes on to lose, but why put it there in the first place if you are not going to keep it there during the race?

Thanks
