At Stats Insider, our "best bets" are carefully chosen based on favourable odds and potential return on investment (ROI).

When a horse is labelled a "best bet", it's not necessarily expected to win outright. Rather, it means that the horse's odds are particularly attractive and may offer a good ROI. So, while it may not be the favourite, it's seen as a smart choice due to the balance between its chances of winning and the odds available.

Placing bets on these horses can be a shrewd tactic, leading to profitable outcomes in the long run, even if they don't win every time.

Understanding Minimum Odds

Our "minimum odds" represent the lowest acceptable odds or payout for a bet. It helps bettors make informed decisions and avoid bets that may not offer sufficient value. If the offered odds are lower than the minimum odds, it's a signal to be cautious.
