MATURE ante-post markets: please discuss.

Here was the ante-post betting on the top six horses in the betting for the King George after five-day entries on Thursday afternoon, at very best prices: 11/4 Might Bite, 5/1 Waiting Patiently, 11/2 Politologue, 7/1 Bristol De Mai, 7/1 Thistlecrack, 7/1 Native River.

So the top six were taking out over 96% of the market, with five other horses in the race. And that was at very best prices. Take any one of the top firms, and their prices on the top six were taking out 100% of the market or more. Hopefully the day of race market will be more competitive.
