EXACTLY!
If the Favourite had every opportunity to win the Race, and didn't, then surely it shouldn't have been Favourite.
Surely the Caulfield Cup Winner shouldn't have been 50 to 1.
Any Winner should never have been a 50 to 1 Chance.
The TOP Rater should run like a top Rater.
If it don't, then the Race needs to be analysed afterr the event to find out why it didn't perform.
But as Punters we like to spend our time trying to predict winners of future races and nowhere near enough time is spent looking at previous Races.
Those that have videotapes of previous Races are the Punters who have the opportunity of finding those animals who are way over the odds, regardless of whether they are top Raters or not.
