Also, horses can be used in the pk4 differently than the win pool than the pk4 pool, some favorites can be heavily used as singles and other horses can be used less in the pk4 than in the win pool. Personally, I just don't think there is any conspiracy here.

i never said conspiracy , i said "sharp money" , perhaps inside connections, certain barns like to bet and they may have learned that in order to make a good payout on a maiden they have to bury him in the exotics. If they bet him heavy in the win pool the whole world sees it and can adjust
there is nothing illegal or wrong going on , a bettor that has info on a horse can bet anyway they see fit
there were 2 madien winners in the early P4 yesterday that were hard to come up with unless you spread deep in those legs .......someone could have perhaps had one of those maidens singled and then spread deep in the other legs , there's no conspiracy , it's just good betting
