You are right there, Dave!
The most memorable example I experienced was bumping into Alec Laird (literally) when exiting the car park at the July when London News won. I had my life on the horse........unusual for me as I didn't normally back favourites.
Another one - if you take a first timer to the races be sure to back whatever they fancy in the first race.

Two for me at the starting stalls.

1) if a horse takes a dump before loading or while loading, it will run unplaced.
2) if a horse “Paw’s” at the ground in the stalls or behind the pens, it wins.

Silvano"s Dasher that just won race 7,was pawing the ground behind the stalls
