all I can say is, even longshot players like myself had him! it's about the horse, not his connections! the exotic payoffs weren't so bad for a prohibitive fave on top

As it relates to risk (and what doesn't?) one thing the Triple Crown series proved is not all public handicappers know what to do with the best horse in a race. The goal of horse race handicapping is to pick winners. Oftentimes the best horse in a top-level race is the favorite.
Many handicappers who act as if they know exactly what they're doing went 0-3 on American Pharoah.
Public handicappers probably don't like favorites because they don't want to be associated with the railbirds or the commoners. A hundred bucks also seems beneath many of them. Whereas a return of 60 to 100 percent would seem like a good investment to many, putting a lot of money on a favorite to win is a huge risk. That's because you can't shut down the wager halfway around, like a stock or bond play, and lose just a little something. Any win bet is high risk. If you're wrong, it's all gone -- there's no stop order at the quarter pole for bailouts.
