Question
how did Big Truck and Atoned pay more to show, then place or win?  Atoned was 5-1 and Big Truck 9-2 at the Tampa Bay Derby.

Answer
Hi Mike:

I never received your original question; sorry for the delay.

In the Tampa Bay Derby, Nick Zito's War Pass went off at 1-9 odds.  The Show Pool was "overloaded" with money on the heavy favorite, and when War Pass ran last, all of those funds got distrubuted to the horses that ran in the money - creating abnormally large payoffs.
