As forwardly placed horses continue to dominate races, riders will become more aggressive.
You see this human factor especially at cheaper tracks, but even the rate-happy Saratoga jockey colony will get more aggressive.
A race with a projected pace meltdown will eventually get carded, and they almost always live up to the projection when they come at a time when speed horses have been performing real well.
