laying in running

[tx77852]

how can I lay a horse in running at say 20 to 1 when the horse is 2 to 1 ...I don't want to lay it unless it reaches 20 to 1

if your going to lay inplay then i would assume that you have decided before the start by reading form etc that the said horse will probably lose and is a possible lay; or you are a good race reader and by your judgement using your race reading skills you decide the said horse is unlikely to to win and therefore a lay.

why would you not lay at 2/1 ?
why would you wait until it drifts to 20/1 ?
