example - class factor overrated
....................
Churchill race 13 - the Turf Classic
the #1 horse - Factor This went off at 5.50/1
the #8 horse - Sacred Life went off at 1.90/1
there was no way IMHO that Sacred Life should have been bet way down below Factor This
the only reason that I can surmise for this happening is that Sacred Life had been in a G1 race and Factor This had not -
this is my favorite angle - it's almost guaranteed that the class horse will be bet down - many times deservingly, but also sometimes undeservingly
