Default Hollywood 5th can anyone tell me?

can anyone tell me why the 8 horse is currently the 9-5 fave?!!
I know he had some trouble last out but I didn't think it was enough trouble that he definitely would have won the race.
His figs are marginal, and Spawr has been 11-12% all year long.
What exactly am I missing here?
We went 3 deep and didn't use him.

Don't see it either. Makes you wonder what's up. The way he's drifting up in odds makes me think someone plucked a bucket on him. Not using hom either so he'll probably win by open lengths. Looking for some early speed holding up cause there's not much there...7?

I dunno man, I don't like this at all.
No way did I figure him to bet like that, I didn't even see him as the 2nd betting choice.
I don't understand the 2's price at all. Thought she would take money.
She banged heads in 44:2 in a nice stake at Turf Paradise last out, and has soem nice races. here we go.........
