Just reading a blog on scalping tips and this advice was given:
Book over-round
This is one of those facts that you don't need to be intuitive to understand; if the book over-round is close to 100%, you know that something has got to give way in the prices of the horses. A tip: most likely the one that has already been either drifting or steaming.
Where do I find these figures though? Is there somewhere on the ladder screen this can be seen/worked out?

I'm making progress with BetAngel thanks to the advice given to my previous question. Played about with about 30 x £2 bets and only lost 90p. Taking it step by step... :)

It's the % number on the one click screen or on the ladder.

If it's not displayed on the ladder go to settings / ladder / ladder header /

Then select 'Book percentages'

You can display them at the top or bottom of the ladder.
