A 7lbs weight reversal at 10fs is more significant than you think.
On to something you might know something about ...
Is it true that Jews are buried standing up? And if so, is the reason really so no change will fall out of their pockets?

Like I said, Blind Luck was the winner the whole way around and would have won, regardless of the weight (within reason). Don't forget, it's Blind Luck we're talking about. She lives to make races close. My thoughts upon seeing the race was that Blind Luck was much better than her nose victory looked.
Yes, all Jews are buried standing up. They are propped up with a large crucifex.
And no, it's not to prevent change from falling out of their pockets, as the family members and Jewish mortuary will have already taken all of that out.
You'd feel right at home at a Jewish funeral!
