The (4) was nowhere to be found and was probably out for a workout.
The horse had not raced in 55 days and had no recent workouts. This was the biggest knock against the horse.
Amazingly the (4) was bet down to 5-2 odds from a 20-1 ML longshot and the winner (3) who was a 5-2 ML favorite went off and won at 5-1 odds (overlay). the tiny win pool was easily manipulated by the track wise guys.
