All ml favs are not the same.
Only a pick of a ml fav of 2-1 or less should rate a zero score

I hear you. Although I think someone should get rewarded for picking the fav, no matter what the odds. It really makes it tempting to pick the fav when you get zero and from the audience's (which includes me since I'm out) perspective, it's more interesting to watch favorites in a race lose, or win since that knocks someone out.
A 7/2 fav, is more risky that a 7/2 where there's also a 2-1 and a 9/5 in the race. Without the zero incentive, no one would pick the former.
But I'm open and maybe we can't vote on the rules for the next one.
