Ann made a smart move in trying to separate herself from the pack with just a few days to go. With 4 days left there were still 12 contestants, and the tiebreaker is based on most wins. Ann was several wins behind the leaders, so the only way she could win the whole thing was to pick a horse no one else was choosing, and hope that the other big favs stumbled.

Now with 2 days left there are still 10 survivors. But it would take a minor miracle for #7 through #10 to win--they are 2-4 wins behind the top 6.
