i'm not saying it was souped up, but i have seen references to a front runner bias. i don't know if that's the case or not, it always seems disgruntled bettors like to place blame on things like that.
my question is, was there really a bias? and if so, (and i think QR is the real deal btw) what does that mean about his race, and the record?
