There's nothing you can do about that. You can only try to get better at predicting it, especially at certain tracks.

Also can depend on the ML maker at the track. Some players may include or exclude horses based on the ML (players that handicap "on the go" so when making a pick 4 may not devote the time if necessary to those later legs).

I think I remember someone making a comment once that people tend to spread in the last leg in a pick 4 because they "don't want to lose" if they hit the first 3. Yeah, I could see this. If anything, this will inflate the payout on a favorite in the last leg as you have more $$ spreading to the other runners.
