Much easier to do at a slots track in the mid-atlantic with gyp trainers starting nags in almost every race with big field sizes -- than tracks that offer quite a few small fields but relatively more competitive racing.

I think it would make a pretty cool long term contest to see who could pick the highest percentage of favorites who finish worse than 3rd.
