It depends on the prices you get and the advantage you have.
If there is no % advantage long term it doesn't matter what liability you have, you'll lose.

For example, the Favourites up to $3.00 for one method I have, there is no advantage, it is breakeven for me. So it makes no sense to have them biggest liability.
This includes all odds on favourites.

Let's say my advantage is in the $4.00 to $8.00 range.
It makes sense to have these as my biggest liability and everything else is a win or skinner.

I do agree, it makes sense not to have outsiders as your biggest liability.
You'll come unstuck in a big way, unless you are selective and ave an edge.
I think the difference between Mark and myself is that he works at getting an edge, I work solely within the confines of the market and don't try and better it, because when it goes pearshaped, I lose more than win
