probably walked into a pub tab near Frankston at 3.30PM on Melbourne cup day and did a survey and extrapolated it across the population.

My guess is that 'Naive' means that they are using a number of methods but these are based on flawed logic or inefficient in picking winners on a consistent basis (or both? = large slice of all punters I reckon)
With respect to the stats themselves, they are part of a thesis completed by the head man at NSW TAB during the 90s who passed on boxing day just gone (was completed after he retired).
