I thought I would put a topic up about races I dont trade and struggle with. Maybe others may want describe the same and put up theres so we can all learn something (well newbies especially)
My cup of tea race...meaning I leave the computer and stick the Kettle on.
A crappy handicap race that is a medium to big field. 10 runners +
with the odds 5 and bigger. No money seems to go through even scalping is a joke.
I just cannot make that race work. So i leave it at all costs.
But i do want to make it work, considering there are so many of them in the winter.
Interested in hearing others and what they struggle with. Or even your favourites
Races I wont trade

This sounds like the perfect 'Back the field' or 'Lay the field' kind of race to me. A high priced Handicap favourite indicates,to me at least,a pretty open race and one were a close finish or high odds winner will occur.

I haven't thought of it that way. A very valid point there. Interesting.
I have heard this a few times, but surely if the bsp's are higher it will take more money to get two horses trading below 2 compared to a race with a strong favourite?vladilyich wrote:This sounds like the perfect 'Back the field' or 'Lay the field' kind of race to me.
