It's that type of insanity that allows the savvy bettor the chance to make a few bucks. You see it all the time. Green two year old trotters sent off as heavy favorites. Yes they do win, but not enough to justify those odds. At Balmoral I have maintained that if you bet the longest shot on the board against a heavy favorite two yr old or cheap trotting race you would make more money in the long run than betting the favorite.
