    I'd go against #5 Mia Magic, it's 5 to 1 in the exchange but it's hard for me to place this bet.

        These 2 are having their first race - worth a short? No response = me not betting

          You say $300 profit is enough, and just settle with it?
          slayer14 above asked what's the next bet lol.

          I believe though your advice is more sound, ty.

            Bet #8 - Orange

            Betting based on the market:



            Would like to stop after this one.

            Good luck!

            Race about to start

                Tough as nails is 600 to 1 now:



                Booking it for 50 to 1 in live, doubting it would be matched.

                      Bet #9 - Terang:



                      Havne't had a chance to post about it before the race, took it after seeing people dropping tons of money against it (one went $20,000 against the horse).

                      Horse ended 4th.

                                This horse ended 3rd... so the market doesn't dicate it so well or a win is a win?

                                    lol.
                                    You don't lay (=have sex) with a horse, you lay it (=bet against it).
                                    I agree whoever used this terminology "lay" should have chosen a different word but English is a tricky language, we all know that.

                                        Grafton is in 6 minutes, I'm considering laying one of the favorites and then call it quits, not sure yet:

                                          "GOLDEN POINT was also an impressive winner 2 runs back and was then just beaten in a class 1."
                                          He finished 2nd.This is another Class 1 race.

                                            The market is going heavily against Alf's Magic.

                                            Freshened. Commanding winner in weaker company here first-up. Expect will be prominent from the decent draw. One of the major players.

                                                I didn't bet on it, too risky when one of the favorites is scratching. Alf's Magic won it.

                                                        Would you go against this one?



                                                        What is "Due for a win" exactly?
                                                        I am due to win or lose for sure.

                                                          1) Top me up - 3.702) Sidekiss - 5.53) Relucent - 7.004) In Hearts Wake - 9.00

                                                          So definitely he's the favorite but it's not a 1.20 horse. Is this price + text misleading or not?

                                                            He lost, and I didn't bet against it ... it's so hard psychologically to do that.
                                                            Ask me to lay a tennis match 4.00 odds against a player - no problem, but with horses it's different.
