Is this possible?

This is from this article on Joe Woodard

"On the other end of the spectrum if he runs back a beaten favorite, you have to stay away from those runners with a vengeance. He is 0 for 737 the past 5 years with beaten chalk."

Is it possible this is accurate? It seems impossible for a beaten favorite to not have rebounded to win over 700 times in a row. If he is winning at 40% with favs that means the other 60% that lose havent won next out in over 5 years? Doug???

Ill forumlate it. Give me a minute.

It's true. Amazing stat.

I spoke too soon. When you type it into Formulator it does in fact come up as 0 for 764 now. But if you look at a horse like Delta Charlie, he was a beaten favorite at Mountaineer on April 16th and then came back 10 days later and won. He was a beaten favorite on May 27th and then won his next race on August 13th.

Perhaps he denys them ice, as a punishment, when they lose?

Im done. But Hoss got it already.

Considering the purse levels at some of the tracks he runs at I'm not sure how he feeds them win or lose.

It basically just means that he's trained 737 horses who've failed to win as the post time favorite over the last 5 years.

I think Formulator puts that stat in there so you can study the PP's of a trainers beaten favorites and look for your own angles and trends.

Speaking of which ... what is the deal with Dom Galluscio trained 3rd time starters who run in NY Bred Stakes races?
