This is something that has always interested me. Who are "they"? Owners, trainers that put such large amounts of money in the early part of the pool it moves odds in a huge way. I'll admit that i do look at the morning line and look at the first flash of odds and just this past weekend Elys fields m/l was 15-1 and on the first click he was at 6-1 which of course made me look a little more at the horse. I didnt bet but did tell a buddy of mine that was at the track about it so he bet him to win/place. Coincidence probably but i do pay attention to the early movement. Always find it interesting.
