SA day six and some GP

At SA the top four betting choices have won 49/57 races - 86% and have figured in 35/58 - 60% of all exactas. "Odds on" have won 5/12 for you horizontal players.

At GP since 12/19818 - 13 race cards
The top four betting choices have won 109/136 races - 80% and have figured in 72/136 exactas - 53%. Odds on = 21/32. But there have been a lot of high teens winners and place horses and some great exactas and place prices if you can figure it out.

I used to keep morning line stats and they can be telling, but you need to know who is doing them and if they change line makers from meet to meet. Some are much better than others.

A couple of years ago, the GP line maker hit something like 89% of his top four choices as winners, whereas other tracks line makers hit about 75+%.

I have nothing current on this having been focused on top four final odds horses.

Much good luck to you all.
