Hi, Michal.

I know a punter who bets mainly for the Place and will not touch any horse under $1.30, which makes sense especially due to the NSW TAB's method of rounding down.

However it is almost impossible to predict a Place divvy. One day my friend would not bet on a horse which was showing a divvy of $1.20 a minute or so before the start time - it eventually paid $1.70, and this was on a Saturday when one would expect minimal fluctuations during the last minute.

I agree it would be best not to touch the low divvies but again, one just cannot tell what a it will pay. So if it is a system selection I have to list it.

As a matter of interest, today's Bairnsdale selection is currently showing a Place divvy of $1.04.
