How can anyone play this conveyor belt racing. Worth than Yonkers in its heyday of line up racing. I wasted paper printing out the form. Glad I didn't waste my money.

Maybe sometimes the riders of other horses don't want to be sacrificial lambs by engaging a faster horse in a speed duel just to make some bettors happy.
The jockey's role is to get the best possible finish for his own horse and not to act as his own rabbit and get the speed beat but himself beat even worse.
