PS sure I have seen the answer to these Qs at some point but all in one place... not so sure!

These are 4 legged horses we're talking about, running around various tracks, at various stages of fitness, with varying levels of ability, where luck plays it's part and the only thing that's consistent is it's randomness ?? Looks like a mathematical formula for the launch of a space shuttle ..... It's a joke, right ??
