It goes without saying there was a high number of investment units on the taurus twins on both quinella and trifecta betting.
It's accepted that's the reason for the low dividends.
Don't have to be a genius to work that one out.
It doesn't go without saying however, that mug punters were to blame.
I'm a little bemused as to why the so called mug punters did not invest equally as heavily for the win if they believed so much in the likely quinella result.
After all, 1 of the 2 had to win before a quinella could be collected.

Re your comment on Tattslotto.
I remember that incident and I can tell you that 5 of the 6 numbers out on that night came out the week before.
I suspect that a lot of people work on theory of lightning striking twice and use combinations of numbers recently drawn.

Imagele,

The simple fact of the matter is this:
Most of those mug punters probably didn't honestly expect either horse to actually win. I'm thinking that they probably just decided to throw a couple of bucks on a quinella and trifecta just for 'fun'.

Must mean the stable is not too smart then.
They train these 2 horses to run a quinella
and presumably don't have a cracker on them.
The "mugs" got the lot.

The 'mugs' got ************ all really. How many mugs would have a big bet say 20 units or approx on those two to run 1-2. I'd say it was the bl**dy mystery punters who took the lot.

What are mystery punters? Surely they are the muggiest of the mugs as they don't care at all what they bet on!

They are annoying divy stealing mystery punters. The mugs back on names/numbers.
