In the last couple of days, David O’Reilly, legal adviser for the online betting exchange, told the jury in the Kieren Fallon case how the Miles Rodgers-controlled Betfair accounts dominated Betfair’s lay markets, being responsible for over 50 per cent of the market liability on a number of occasions. Prosecution explained how Rodgers was offering high odds showing a strong confidence in the outcome. O’Reilly had, however, to concede that the evidence provided by Betfair was misleading in 8 of the 27 races since the data included prices offered in-running.
