The betting during the race is also fun, but again, you have to be lightning fast and I found that faster people than me were sucking the value out. I have heard some here say they wait for a horse to run off before the race, then cover all the bets on that horse. The problem is, you're going to be laying a lot of 40-1 and 60-1 bets. You only need to be wrong once to wipe out your profits for a long while.
If you're a straight, grind-it-out win bettor AND they cover your tracks AND you don't bet big, you're probably getting better odds than in the mutual pools. If you like exotic wagering or multi-race bets (which happen to be my favorites) then exchange wagering offers no value.
