HOT COMBO LONGSHOT

Requires 10 or more starts together, a combo win rate at least 8 percentage points above the average of the trainer's and jockey's individual ITM percentages, and a morning line of 8-1 or higher. This is a market inefficiency angle: the public prices the horse on its recent form while the known-powerful trainer-jockey collaboration goes unnoticed. When a high-performing combo is brought together on a longshot, the implied probability gap between the odds and the true win probability is often exploitable.
