Skeptics sometimes miss the ball by over-fixating on the feats of sexy high-profile trainers. And while implausible improvement from horses that have changed hands stands out more starkly, and thus engenders more cynicism, the sudden, inexplicable awakenings of small "mom and pop" outfits, in cases where the same shop-worn stock simultaneously comes to life and starts blowing up the tote board, occur surprisingly often and should raise plenty of eyebrows in their own right.
As a side note: Those lower-profile "miracles" can, for obvious reasons, create great betting opportunities for alert players good at spotting an emerging trend.
