Not to point out the obvious....

The fact that she was making her second start off the layoff, had run more than one race in the last 12 months more than good enough to win this going away, and appeared to be the lone true speed horse in a race in which all of the legit form favorites were going to be coming from off the pace out of a different zip code....

Other than those relatively minor handicapping points, yes you're right, it made absolutely no sense at all.
