Yes it is quite odd, some horses love being first up and then wont perform second up and then start to improve on thier third-fourth up start.

Certainly gives the horse enough time to perform. And well if you have a $26 winner, then that gives you 25 races without a winner to at least grab another winner. Certainly seems like it could come up with a handy profit.

Ill be keeping an eye on this for sure.
