But you have to be present at every post to make or cancel bets that don't meet criteria. Also there is a lot less action when demanding minimum odds. It becomes a lifestyle thing.

Yes it makes financial sense to forget lower odds horses. But from my records not absolutely necessary.
Great job having your stats. It makes sense to whatever you are feeling. If I were you, I would have my horses 2-1+ since your ROI is much better. Good luck this year Pook!
