I am sure your figures ARE superior CJ, but over the years I have found many that slipped through the cracks from other providers. One situation has been profitable: when a timing/fat finger mistake happens in maiden races.I have found 2 of these before subsequent races and at least 5 postmortem.
Sometimes other people(speed figure guys and insiders) KNOW that the Number posted is incorrect and they bet the horse hard. Usually nonmaiden races have horses with other good or adequate races to judge a horse by. At the bigger tracks these errors are caught. At the smaller tracks not so much.
