If you're rooting, and not betting, fine...odds are irrelevent. But, if you're betting, the odds are of paramount importance.
I agree. I just won't make a big bet on short priced horses. There is no return on investment. What is the point of risking 1K to make $800 on a 4-5 shot. You need to win more than 50% of the time.
