None of which ends up being accurate in the final odds....and even if they are, so what? Just let the odds develop as they occur in real time...does the public really care what they are likely to bet ahead of the actual betting? I think we would get bigger average payoffs if the morning line was eliminated and that would be good for racing bettors...
