please explain as the higher the pecentages the better for the bookies ....

Thats why i said its a bookmakers dream - if they bidding to 102% - they cant lose if they lay. Certainly not if they offer under the bids.

Snappys groom in collar and tie (for the interview) - always a good sign for a win

@Alacaponee:

That didn't help for it to win!

At least, it did finish on board and NOT in FRONT OF Fancy Some French!

Do local bookies lay such bets?

El Momento / Pick of the Bunch double. Put Scott / Yeni in all exotics ....

Not sure where you are coming from?

A bookie betting against the punters at 102% would have 2% profit on the "book"

If he was 130% and the punters were punting that would be a dream with a 30% profit

You are misunderstanding him Scotia. What Ruffian says is 100% correct.
When the bookies price up at 130% it does'nt mean that they are making 30%. That will only happen if they lay every runner in the race at its price. However, they will in all probability only lay 2 or 3 runners. i.e the 130% is meaningless.
There is a huge difference offering at 130% or bidding at 130%.
In any instance where the bid is more than 100% the bookies can't lose. Generally the bids are around 80%.

Was looking at the 5th and thought "should I have a go at Palermo Rosa No1 - Reason

1. Results from 1st to 4th 6+1+1+1+ Palermo Rosa (1) = 10

No I didnt have a go
