Well - it can be a tricky subject.

I've had many disagreements about a bias a on specific day with guys I consider to be extremely competent and some very sharp at watching races. So, even among people with the skill to detect bias ... there's not always going to be a strong consensus.

There are obvious days ... like some on the dirt at old Keeneland ... where pretty much anyone here who isn't a certified tard or named PG 1985 could have detected a rail bias.
