I meant in the scheme of things, stings and cats will always pop up from time to time, but the statistics stay the same because overall racing isn't fixed, but a small portion of them are.
I don't think you can pick which one's are without knowing all the facts.
We have a choice, we can think we were dudded everytime a horse loses or recognise that sometimes we may have been dudded, but overall the horse just didn't fire.
I don't believe I've been dudded more than most and I don't believe that money equals a fix,especiallywhen it was the get out stakes last race, favourites have a terrible habit of being overbet atCanterbury and some bookies opened the favourite at $2.00 and may well have layed off the early money and there was plenty of money for the eventual winner.
