There doesn't appear to be any 40-1's or 30-1's anymore.It's like someone was betting every horse in the race to pay a specific price that they want it to pay. something's not right with the odds anymore.

I will give you a solution to your problem. Try harness racing. There are always a few 50-1 shots in every race with 10 horses. Damn, 8 horse fields always draw a couple horses over 30-1, guaranteed.
