All Finger Lakes horses and races are not equal. The trainer and rider were enough to know this. We are talking state bred racing here so I'm not sure the difference was near as great as you are making it out to be.
Curious how often people actually bet the horse they think is 'best' in a particular race before it is run. In my case I'd venture is definitely a minority of the time.

"If horses that are fourth best at 7-1 are your bag, she was a great bet"...Andy wrote. Since we assess a horse's betting value BEFORE the race is run...I have to think that he was questioning this horse's PRE-RACE wagering value.
