Well said, and I would need to study to even get up to knowing "little"

But like you said, I "know" that 20-1 Kentucky Derby winners likely shouldn't suddenly vault up to having true 1/3 chances of winning other major races.
Call WE 1/4 x 1/3 to win the Triple Crown. I think I'm being kind here. It's likely less than that.
I still think must horse racing bettors work hard to not make money. Slap an obvious +EV bet out there with relatively small vig (No TCrown at -1000). Do they flood the windows with no bets? Nope. They sharps blow off the good bet (looking for better in the -18% vig world of horse racing) and the squares bet the +800 and drive it down to -950/+750. Amazing!
