yet Zito found nothing run at all.

the horse is just one of those favorites that has to have absolutely everything go their way or they throw in the towel.

I think the main reason for this is the number of horses and the number of true contenders in the race. You can easily make a case that only 3 horses had a shot in this race for win and place. A 3x3 x All 1.00 tri cost 30 bucks not alot for a low risk wager. As far as the Super a 3 x 3 x All x All cost 120 for a buck and 12.00 for a dime. I'm sure a lot of Dime players canibalized the pot. IMHO Supers are paying way less since dime Supers came into play of course I will get an argument but have no way of backing up my claim since I don't have the data to compare. It is simply my observation.

but $2.40
not a problem
