The speed model is just not the right/best one for this type of event.

You're making a very incorrect assumption if you think I don't bet slow horses like Ice Box who exit races with trips like he did.
I bet them FAR more often than you think... and more often than most people who aren't certified hopelessly bad bettors. People who post here like Indian Charlie and Tector know quite well that I'm not affraid to bet horses who's recent numbers are too slow to compete.
