Horse & Dog Betting on favorites

I believe that even in this sport, there are favorites and most people assume that a favorite horse or dog will always win. I believe that this isn't always the case because there are variables like the type of track or how the horse has performed in the last few races. Do you always bet on favorites or do you like trying your luck on the 'unpredictable' ones?

I have done both. I always bet on the favorite to place, however, I also pick my personal favorite horse based on my knowledge of horses and the track etc. I really love to go to the horse racing track and there is one right here where I live!

I have never been one who believes that my "favorite" will win. If I ever did pick a favorite it was because that dog had a history of letting me break even or win.

I hear you @zephyr 12 and @June. In most cases, a favourite dog or horse is one that has a high stake of winning and so most people will settle on them for that sole reason. However, there are those that pull surprises and most horse and dog racing enthusiasts love to try their luck here.
