While I agree that most of these winners were favored, closers were at a clear disadvantage at Pimlico yesterday. The winning margins of some of the winners also indicates the existence of a speed bias.
To avoid an unsupported assertion, here is a summary of yesterday's chart results for the dirt races at Pimlico:
Sprints - % of winners either on or within 1 length of lead at 2nd call: 100%
Routes - % of winners either on or within 1 length of lead at 2nd call: 83%
In the end, you only have a limited amount of data available in the middle of a card to decide whether or not to adjust your play based on a perceived bias.
Based on the information available, it appears that the closers were against the grain of the bias at Pimlico yesterday.
