What Is a Market Mover?

A Market Mover is a horse whose odds have shortened or lengthened in the lead-up to a race.

A horse whose price gets larger from the market opening is called a drifter, whereas a horse whose price shortens is called a steamer.

The price will change depending on the volume of bets placed on a horse.

Why Do Market Movers Occur?

Regarding a horse’s price shortening up in the betting, this can occur for several reasons.

Owners may feel that their horse has a strong chance in a race and will look to place a bet early at the best possible price.

A positive mention from a trainer or a jockey about a horse can also shorten the price as punters latch on.

Keep an eye on Ryan Moore's booked rides as they often influence market movements.

It’s important to note, though, that any Market Mover will have a ‘snowball effect’ as other punters notice the odds shortening and will then also back the horse.

Of course, although a well-backed horse is potentially more likely to win, there are no certainties in racing, so always gamble responsibly.
