If a jockey rams his ride up another horses ass and behind a wall of three others to finish eighth, everyone will hollar, "he didn't like the surface at all." But is that really the case? Everyone is talking about this synthetic surface like the Breeder's Cup is being run over broken glass on the moon. If anything, I'll try and find a reason a 15/1 might "take to the track" and emerge from the chaos of these fifteen horse stampedes, and try and find some of those big payouts you mentioned -- not why some favorite won't.
How, pray tell, do you intend on doing this, specifically? Thnx
