I have been working on what I'm happy to call true value for the greyhound races at various tracks and traps.

If I'm confident that I have found value odds for both traps 1, & 6 for examples should I put bets on both dogs or pick just one?

What happens if I found value odds for 3 or 4 more of the 6 dogs?

Do I not erode my value or profits by placing multiple single bets on a one winner event?

I usually place bets with a target profit rather than a fixed stake. Is this still the right approach for multiple back bets in the win market event?

Bet everything you see as value, dog markets are small so as you scale up the stake will limit itself pretty soon.

But while you scale up, Kelly staking, or partial Kelly would give you a guide, although simply starting small and gradually increasing every few hundered bets would be a fair call too.
