Froggy:
Perhaps the reason payoffs on the favorites or horses whose odds are within the top three favorites seems lower these days is because people accept the program’s results outright.
The bombs they are another story. They require more confidence in the program results since there is obviously no support in the betting or good write-ups by the handicapping talking heads. You can easily talk yourself out of them by way of conventional handicapping methods or practices. Usually the pace lines do not have especially good speed ratings/pace call times or the distances or surfaces seem all wrong or the class is not obvious. But so what, Doc Sartin has found a way around all of that and is able to bring those babies home from time to time.
I too am fearful of what too much of a good thing can do. It is not a 100% guarantee every time, every race, and every track but when it is on look out. IMO it is out of our hands but hopefully there will be some consideration.
