This data shows you how the favourite ran in each race type. Some show profits backing/laying them blindly. You do need to pay attention to the ROI though and not just the PL figures.
The more positive the ROI (return on investment) figure is the more easier it is to make money, and the harder it is for a negative figure. However with less than -2% ROI it isn't that hard to turn in into profit by being more selective.
Backing the Favs blindly in Sellers at Betfair prices has proved very profitable over the 7 years of data supplied. Whereas Handicaps and Maidens have proved a bit of a disaster. Laying the Favs in all Listed races has also proved very profitable. Probably as these are horse trying to find out if they have a bit of class or not and failing.
