How accurate are bookies predictions?

Bookmakers' odds give an estimate of the probability of, say, a horse winning a particular race. And if they were reliable, around 50 per cent of horses with even odds would win their races, around 33 per cent of those with odds of 2-1, and so on, right down to just 1 per cent of 'long shots' with odds of 100-1.
