A massive low price on Lewisham 1.08 at the moment to Back, with over £250k traded and just under an hour to go.
Can anyone with a bit more knowledge of racing give me an insight please?
Why such a short price?..and how far could the price be actually pushed in before kick off?

thanks :)

It's rated about 40lbs higher than anything else in the race. Very roughly 3lbs in weight is worth a length. Which means it's 12-13 lengths better than anything else at the weights. I'm no handicapper so these are ball park figures. It finished 2nd in a Group 2 race, so it's a group class horse running of favourable weight terms in a maiden race. Sally Bruce has run 13 times without winning mostly in class 6 races.
In short it's like Man Utd playing at full strength, at home against a poor league 1 team. It's more likely to drift than steam in. Whats the potential upside v downside?
