That is why I spend more time looking at the willpays of doubles and pk-3s. That gives me a sense of whether the win odds are out of whack or not. For instance, one person two weeks ago on another forum complained about a horse that was dropped from 9/2 to 5/2 after the race started while the favorite was steady at 9/5. Yet, the willpays showed that the 9/2 horse was the favorite in the willpays of the dd and the pk-3. Thus the bettor ended up getting 5/2 when he should have expected 8/5 or 9/5. Even at 5/2 that is a huge edge.
