Reply #33: You've piqued my curiosity now.

I'm not sure where you're going with this, but I'll play along.

So what happens (in terms of probability/suspicion rating) if the same thing happens in the next race, and the one after…and all ten races in sucession?

Further, what happens if initial enquiries reveal that each of the winning horses came (if not from the same Stable) but all from the same State?

Pure coincidence? Chance? Random events within law of averages?...Or increasingly highly suspicious and warranting further investigation?

I'd say increasingly highly suspicious and warranting further investigation.

If your curiosity is still alive let me know your assessment of probability.
If you would care for a supplemental (to tie the point/s together) then I invite you to pick an area of human endeavour (Art, Science, Music, Military, whatever you like) and nominate ten people of genius and/or ‘most influential’ in that field (or fields if you want).

Alright, I'll pick Science. My nominations would be (in no particular order):

- Charles Darwin (theory of evolution)
- Nicolaus Copernicus (theory that the earth was not the center of the universe, and that earth revolved around the sun)
- Galileo Galilei (improved the telescope and discovered many of the planets of the solar system)
- Louis Pasteur (researched the first vaccines devised for humans)
- Jonas Salk (developed vaccines for influenza and polio)
- Albert Einstein (theory of relativity)
- Isaac Newton (theorized gravitational force and the three laws of motion)
- Niels Bohr (theory that electrons orbit the atom's nucleus, that light could could have properties of both wave and particle)
- Thomas Edison (oversaw a team of inventors that produced such things as the light bulb, phonograph, and telegraph)
- Rene Descartes (father of analytical geometry)

So where are you going with all this?
