In my opinion you aren't betting blind if you know the horse can handle the going and is what you think is a fair price. Upsets happen in any going, interference, jockey error etc etc.
The statistics reflect that it is no worse backing Heavy runners than any other track regardless of the other horses.
I'd rather back a plodding Heavy tracker with good class and form than a reefing and tearing fast tracker any day, but as I said we have different methods and different views which is all good.
The point is what was published was misleading and, in fact, wrong.
