There is a lot problematic about these dramatic odds changes. Most notably is they are ALWAYS (or almost always) on the winner. And always dramatically down.
One question I have that I can't get my head around. If the 4 was so obvious (i.e. 3-2 in the daily double pools) why is it 4-1 at post time? So the general public is idiotic and only the computer players know? Something isn't right. It feels like pool manipulation (buoying other horses to make it appear they are live) and a combination of late money and cancelled wagers. The 3-2 odds on the favorite should be relative proportionate up to and through the big computer wagers. It NEVER is. Why?
There are a lot of things wrong with this game but this is easily #1 on the list. Finally, if fixed odds were a thing and the tracks were on the hook, I am positive betting anomalies would be stopped immediately. The oversight would be forensic-like.
