They may well be submitted conditionally hours before the race is run making it 'legal', but my point is those bets are 'allowed' to be submitted last. Yes I am speculating, however if this is ever truly audited is there anyone who doesn't believe you would consistently see the same entities are somehow betting last race after race?

All it takes is the existence of 2 teams with the same access to invalidate this. The tote isn't able to aggregate the wagers until after the race has started. Even if the teams could see all the wagers "on the way" it'd still be impossible, because there'd be another team doing the same thing. I don't believe any person or entity can tell you exactly what the payouts will be until after the race has started and betting has stopped. However, I do believe it's possible to fairly accurately estimate this, and I'm positive people are doing that.
