@curious you might be able to tell me but is the HKJC World Pool and advantage or a disadvantage financially to NZ when there are two $1 favourites?  How is the top up to $1 accounted for?  I'll admit I haven't got a clue but it struck me that you'd make more money out of a fixed odds market excluding Ka Ying Rising and Romantic Warrior than the Tote.

I also thought that if you were going to launder money then those two races were the ones to do it on!

Don't really know but generally, more competitive races attract more betting.
