I've handicapped and watched every race run at GP so far this meet, I've had a bet on more than half of them---and only two races the entire meet did I see something that came across as being even slightly fishy to me. The race in this thread was one. The other involved a 30/1 first-time-starter in a MCL race who had just two nondescript workout. They named an out of town jockey I'd never heard of, with an abysmal record in '05 to ride him. A late rider switch was made to a competent jockey. The horse broke in full stride, and nicely went wire-to-wire.
Just because something looks a little fishy, doesn't mean anything fishy really happened. I realize that.
