Favourites running at $2.30 to win and $8.10 to place only happens on a rare occasion, and i remember a few months ago reading about this.
Apparently what happens is there is a betting plunge on TAB in a race with a small market (usually early morning dogs) and they punt 7 runners fo the place and leave one (usually the favourite) for odds to blowout on TAB, then punt on another website offering TOTE odds.

Definitely something is going on here along the lines of the Lucy Light sting on Curly Seal.
Last Monday on Manawatu (NZ) dogs Race 1 on S/Tab the win pool was $4,393 and the Place pool a Whopping $15,256 resulting in the 2nd fav paying $10.20 a place ($3.60 a Win). It ran 3rd.
Then in Race 3 with a Win pool of $5,470 and a Place pool of $14,731 the $1.10 Fav Wins and pays an incredible $5.30 for a place![]()

Surely there's still not bookies out there leaving themselves open to be stung as Seal was?
