Essentially YES.
Prepost is computer generated with a dash of human intervention. But their market is up there in the 150% range. So the prices must go out to become 100%. But some come down, so others must go out further. And the clincher is "What happens to the PP when there is a scratching or two?" Or is the PP no longer relevant? The answer is !!!! We will leave that for another time and place.

Considering that the PP is for all runners pre-scratching, their fav win rates is on par with tote favs.

What happens when the PP and the on course openers coincide? This is history and present coinciding. Has the on course openers added anything or have they too jumped on the money market?

How many punters rate their own. Very few. How many punters doing their own ratings win in the big league? The big league win more often because they factor in all aspects (over 200 factors) correctly. That's why betting HK is easier.
