So Dot, you and the stewards incorrectly thought that Tigerpie was not a winning chance/only making up the numbers.
What if he got a dream run and the race was more or less an 800m sprint
The defeat you talk about (4 starts ago before a freshen up) was not a shocker (beaten 10m) and included a $1.30 pop who made last night's favourite 2nd pick at $4.40. That race was a mere 400m sprint so you are not going to make ground from back in the field when they finish in 26.8. Tigerpie came out at the same track at its very next start and rated 3.3 secs faster over a slightly longer trip
Odds have little to do with it but did you notice that he was 5th favourite last night
I think he drew well and got a dream run which helped him get up in a 4way go
I still say the QIP was ridiculous - and should not be something stewards do to appease disappointed punters
