I haven't watched all the races and don't know many of those horses. So I have no opinion on whether there was a bias. But you have to be careful about assuming that just because the horses that won were bet that means there wasn't a bias. Sometimes it works the other way around. After a series of races where certain paths or styles seem to be doing well, people start betting the horses they think will benefit from the "supposed bias". So it looks like there just happened to be a series of short priced horses of the same style winning. However, they may not have been as logical as the odds suggest except for the bias related wagering. I think bias analysis requires a detailed understanding of the ability of the horses, their trips, and how they actually ran. That's pretty tough unless it's your home track.
