ITS A MIRACLE, ITS A MIRACLE

I am not promoting or putting any bookmaker up or down here, but for what it's worth, BODS or Bookies.co.za are always priced up shorter than Betting World or Hollywood. Unlike to days of Wits or Natal Tatts (where I am told) a group of bookies sat and discussed the betting per race because they were literally in the same building, unlike today where bookies are spread far and wide, not sure in the case of BODS whether they just sponge off the early odds makers like Hollywood and Betting World and just make the betting a point less or whether one bookie in the syndicate actually prices up and 4 or 5 of them spread the risk. Personally I feel betting is about supply and demand, if the punters feel a horse is priced up too short, they won't back it and the bookies have no option but to drift it in the betting market, conversely, if a horse is priced up bigger than the form studiers make it, that's the one which shortens in the betting. Sometimes unbeknown to us punters, say one bookie prices up a horse 7/1, and actually lays a punter those odds, and another bookie prices up 10/1 the same horse, the shorter priced bookie claims the 10/1 and the horse may be adjusted into 5/1. Betting is shown to certain punters before opening publically - that is gospel from a reliable source.
