Two one-way speed horses in the race, but Javier Castellano was not aggressive enough and Moreno was not quick enough. As soon as he was crossed and cleared he became odds-on to finish dead last...and Bayern's chances of winning obviously increased tremendously with a loose early lead.

In America, there's no in-race Exchange wagering. You're just supposed to "watch the beautiful spectacle and enjoy the pretty horses and colors"
Imagine the odds you could have gotten on Texas Red in race while he was dead last on that speed favoring track.
