when insiders bet down an unlikely contender and the horse does well there is often a lot of talk
but the insiders lose a lot to the time too - but when they lose there isn't much talk
then there are the wannabee insiders - for example they see a loser claimed by a trainer they suspect of drug violations and then think the trainer is a miracle worker
I once saw a horse who lost his last race by 35 lengths, the previous race by 27 lengths and did not finish the race before that get claimed by one of these suspicious trainers and get bet down to 7/2
ridiculous
