if anything, things like yesterday are a good thing. it showed once again that you can be lucky rather than good, and you don't have to be an oil-rich sheik or be able to afford pletchers day rate to win a big race. this is the only sport that you don't have to have mark cubans bankroll in order to be a participant.
yeah its nice about the "giantkillers" angle, but it doesnt make the heavy rollers bet any more next year. i venture to say they will bet less
