Which is the point of the question. And why it has to be factored into handicapping.
A few years ago I knew of a Derby favorite who had a real serious problem, and the connections were thinking of running him almost up to entry time. A horse only gets one shot at the Derby, people don't always do the right thing.
Fast horses are only fast if they run their race.
