Entry Strategies by Track

When favorite is strong:
  • Back positions 1-3 for consistency
  • If position 1 has over 40% of pool, pivot to positions 2-3
  • Conservative capital management
Payout profile: favorites pay modest multiples; the further down the field, the higher the potential multiple — always set by the pool, never fixed.
