For the first race, everyone underestimated the mixed breed horse because of its lower charging speed than purebreds.
Any casual racing fan would know that.
However, Mr.
Thatcher might have overlooked that while mixed breeds lack explosive power, they excel in endurance, which is their key advantage.
He waved his hand, gesturing toward the racetrack as he continued, This clubs track is nearly 50 meters longer than standard tracks.
That extra distance allowed the mixed breed to showcase its superior stamina, ultimately overtaking the faster but less enduring horses, which decided the race.

What about the second race? Andrew replied, That was even more straightforward.
Your chosen horse had a hidden injury in its left front hoof, causing it to stumble and fall off the track. Harvey scoffed.
That sounds like cheating.
How did you know about the injury when no one else did ? NO Andrew was unfazed by the crowds doubt. Thats a rather foolish question.
Just because others missed it doesnt mean I had to miss it too.
You... Harvey choked on his words.
Bernard sneered.
So, youre suggesting you have better judgment than Mr.
Thatcher ? Those are your words, not mine, Andrew responded flatly.
Enough! Marks commanding voice silenced Bernard and Harvey immediately.
Dr.
Lloyd, please explain how you spotted the horses condition, Mark asked with genuine interest.
The horse was anxiously stomping its hoof before the race, and anyone paying close attention could have noticed.
But mainly, as a doctor, Im trained to spot signs of illness or discomfort in humans.
The sprinciple applies to identifying injuries in horses, Andrew explained.

Lloyd, youre amazing! Lauren applauded enthusiastically.
Harveys group fell silent, unable to argue against Andrews professional expertise.
Mark joined in the applause, saying, Brilliant! Not only do you have keen observation, but youre also applying medical knowledge to racing! I dont mind losing to such expertise! Andrew added, As for the final race, your thoroughbred should have won based on pedigree alone.
However, what you might have missed is that it was a stallion, while my pick was a mare, and that made all the difference. 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 72 Mark looked puzzled.
What does gender have to do with winning or losing ? Andrew explained Your thoroughbred may be worth a fortune with legendary speed, but its still an animal ruled by natural instincts. Unfortunately, your stallion was in heat, making it easily distracted by mares.
My horse, though older, had one crucial advantage being a mare.
Im sure everyone can figure out what happened when she got close to an aroused stallion during the race.
