Tom, I actually won on a 9-1 horse a few weeks ago. I wrote a nice 3 paragraph post because I wanted to share but unfortunately just before posting my tablet got a hiccup and erased my post. Lol. Totally pissed me off as you can imagine and I could never do just justice to the original with a rewrite, esp right after it happened. So here is a summary as best I can remember.
Basically I did a one race test(2 dollar win bet) on a turf race. The horse I selected was the 3rd selection based on the formula. The formula odds were I believe 5-1 but ml was around 8-1. This was a first time turfer but breeding said he would be good. Also on dirt he had done well on the distance w same class as the race. So, just before post he even got to 14-1. Long story short he wins. Lead from the 1st call and won by I think 2 1/2 lengths. Final odds at payout were 8.5/1. I know its just one race but I got to the track late because they started early for some reason. I will link the charts as soon as I get home.
