I believe that the truth is somewhere in the middle. Its true that Calder is not an easy place to ship into and win sprinting. Sure its the track but I also think that it has to do with things like temperature. Its an advantage to train on the actual racing surface and in the same climate.
however I don't think you can totally dismiss the performances either. The two favorites are not as bad as they appeared to be today, but they're probably not head and shoulders better than everyone else either, as their odds today would imply.
