Is it a fair assumption that the jumps races this time of year don't generate nearly as much genuine punter money as most of the decent quality flat races, and subsequently a narrow price range in a jumps race market is nowhere near as reliable, and more likely to drift/steam rapidly out of nowhere?
If this is true, wouldn't flat races - particularly with no clear cut favourite - be safer to scalp these days, while the jumps races would generally be better to swing trade? And is the reverse true when jumps season gets well under way in October/November and the flat race markets seem to be less stable?
Or am I just way, way off?
