Looks like there was a big bridgejumper in there, as it was only a 6 horse field and the win horse paid $4.60 to place and $13 to show, and the place horse $3.40 to place and $10.40 to show.

someone who bets an exhorborant amount of money to show on a horse to TRY make the 5% profit when the horse pays 2.10 to show ( the minimum ) usually a bridgejumper will bet 10K to 100K to show. a lot of times it is on an odds on favorite in a short field. a money market is 5% per year nowadays they call it a bridgejumper because when the horse finishes 4th the guy jumps off the nearest bridge |

i would assume bridgejumping involve at least 10k at a smaller track and 50k at a major track.... more like the guy that gets a tip on a penny stock that is 31 cents, invests 50k, then the company goes bankrupt. I don't see anything low risk in betting a horse to show for a lot of money to make 5% |

If nobody pounds a horse with all that show money, your $100 won't do enough damage to the pool to make it a bridge jumping situation to begin with. |

so, no, because why would you "jump" if you only lost 1k |
