TGJB, do you really believe there is past posting going on? In "The Sting" they used past posting tricks to convince Robert Shaw they were wiseguys. But the potential for past posting in the computer and simulcast era seems significant to me. I do know of some interesting late odds changes. Funny Cide in the Derby took a significant drop upon payout for example. You're record of ascertaing issues and taking advant guard positions has to be considered by those contemplating the issue. A little care to prevent it certainly seems to be practical to me. How much money do you figure went down to change the odds a half point? Thats doesn't seem especially significant to me.
