Irishfever has a point about a 'dubious' method to get higher race odds on heavy favorites.

Bet very heavy very early, towards post time the other horses get corrected - bringing their odds more toward their probabilities. At last second, cancel some or most of your original heavy bet. The heavy favorite odds improve while others drop.

I have seen this many times at small pool venues like greyhound races where the total win pool is frequently under $500.

It is possible a heavy bettor was using this 'strategy' at the time and it was just a coincidence that Unique Bella broke poorly. They might have cancelled their bet 10 seconds before the break.
