Frankel probably wins 30% of the time in these situations and is probably over bet 80% of the time. You do the math.
In this particular type of class-break situation(stakes winner in a optional claimer,) the chance of beating him is not as you say. I wish it was. It really is a useless race. Can't wait until he is out of the game(this type of race is why.) A trainer can't relate.
