Is it possible to pick a horse before a race then only place a lay bet on this horse if it is NOT the favourite just before the off?

e.g
Yesterday 2.00 Brighton
the racing post f/c fav was Ask Jenny so I wanted to lay Ask Jenny if it wasn't the favourite just before the off at odds of between 2.00 & 7.00.
If it was the favourite then it would be a no bet
If it was outside those odds it would be a no bet

Ask Jenny ended up as 4th Favourite @11/2 (favourite was Avrilo@3/1) and lost (so I would have won)
hopefully that explains it.

One thing you can try to do is f.ex.

Set the min odds of fav to 10
Set the odds range of 2nd- 10th fav to 2.00 - 7.00

If you use this settings as user bets, you will see that if your horse is the fav it will be out of odds range and if it is between 2nd - 10th fav it will place the bets as long as odds is between 2.00 and 7.00.

Got it?
