Are the bookies afraid of pricing up 'Reserves'

[montyracing2]

Reserves and weight adjustments in irish racing have cost me dear over these last two years. They play havoc with my trend analyses, not being able to rule out as well as missing the winners.

Without doing any major investigation, my bones tell me to watch changes on the day (especially bottom weight reserves).

Today, it seems the bookies are also unwilling to price up reserves in the 4:55 race at Limerick, I wonder why?

Some bet without them.

Most will bet without them Monty - ie. if you finish second to a reserve they'll pay you out as a winner.
