The data even with this small of a statistical sample makes sense in that most people think it will either be resolved before the Kentucky Derby, but failing that it could be a very long time.
Happened to flick on TVG just as they were done loading into the gate in the finale yesterday (knowing from Twitter what horses would scoop the whole pot). I must say, because of the fact that we aren't able to partake in it, I was actually rooting for the jackpot to be hit. The 2 loomed large at the head of the stretch and definitely looked the part of the winner, only to have the 1 save enough gas in the tank to repel the 2's stretch run. Last year I would have been rooting for one of the other horses to overtake the jackpot winners, but yesterday I found myself actually happy for the person who had the 1 horse.
