JFC,

It might be interesting to look at Saturday Metro meetings only (and in particular MR/SR) as I think you will find that TF has more of an advantage there on the favourites. Also someone on this forum some time ago mentioned that the TF and SP quoted by IAS are not the official values but rather the SP is whatever IAS was offering at the jump and the TF is the highest IAS offered (and not necessarily the TF from the betting ring). Now I don't know whether this is true or not but you may want to investigate it further before you write off TF completely.
