Hi Everyone

I am new to betting in general and was reading about "Laying the field". I did read some older post on this forum about it and was wonder if its still a viable way of making money?

It is in certain races but as a general rule if you lay the field in every race you will probably lose money, remember you are guarenteed to lay the winner so you would need a high strike depending on what price you are laying at.

Look at Peters recent video about Cheltenham it has a good list of the lowest inrunning betfair prices for horses that did not win there was only one 1.01 and not many around the 1.10 mark from what i can remember I personally wont get envolve in this market this year good luck to everybody who is
