Perhaps I'm completely wrong, but I don't believe that you need some sophisticated computer system to determine the most likely winner in a horse race. the public gets it right 1/3rd of the time by using the most basic handicapping. that same public that complained about Mayweather Pacquaio will line up to bet McGregor in the worst boxing match of all time. My point is, the public is not overly smart. I've long felt that the math nerds and computer system bettors aren't looking for a big edge, just one that's sustainable long term. Surely with enough money on hand at all times, they can invest into low if any risk with small returns.Unless you think the computers are the reason for so many favorites winning its hard to justify they have built something bigger stronger and faster.
