I have a feeling that these kind of relationships have probably broken down (or weakened, anyway) in this era of simulcasting where you are not necessarily thinking about the last race at a particular track when you've played 4 other tracks in between races. However, if the first four races of the day are all won wire-to-wire on the rail or something like that, people certainly take notice. But does that then make it a good idea to bet the closer? Probably not.
