There was obviously a mistake made in the 2nd at Belmont today. The 4 horse Grand Strand should be 2-1 and the 1 horse Perfect American should be 20-1. Anyone who uses the morning line as a handicapping factor, such as eponies, this error will throw off your ratings.

The program has the right line. The favorite is 2:5, not 2:1.

Thanks for the heads-up. It is appreciated.

Don't take this as a criticism; I am really interested in this. Who has this ML wrong?

I load my spreadsheets from DRF and Equibase and both have the :1: at 30/1 and the :4: at 2/5. Separately, QuickHorse, likewise includes those odds in their figures. The QH numbers are from their latest data, but the DRF and Equibase figures were extracted some time on Wednesday afternoon.

The DRF (printed) that I looked at had the "graded" entries for this race more or less upside down, with the :1: horse on top and the :4: horse on the bottom, with a disclaimer to the effect that "M/L odds were not available at printing." Can't imagine what happened here.
