Never bet on or aginst the favorite.

[Bill V.]

The more I learn the more this problem seems to take care of itself

The only time I think about the odds on my two horses is at betting
time, If I do a race then go and make my bet. at this moment I used to
rework the race and wagercap against the favorite Truth be told I do better when I work a race in advance and put in my bet without knowing odds
I have lost many $9.00 winners who were $5.60 winners . Lots of money
comes in as the race is running. How often is the actual betting favorite in the result charts the horse who was the favorite at 2 minutes to post?

To answer your question I bet into a race to win that race.
if it means betting a short odds horse %60 and a good odds horse 40 %
that is what I will do.
I'm SLOWLY learning there are far less horses that can win a race than
I ever believed in the past. This part of working races has been hard for me
to understand and old habits die hard but with practice and belief I am improving.

I will bet my top two choices to win, I need two horses to do 1 thing
win the race I don't want to have to battle the tote board too, now I have 3 battles. and I could win 1 and still lose

My opinion
