   The caller was interested in the probability that his daughter and her newly-acquired horse might share the same birthday. More precisely (or, actually, considerably less precisely) the caller wanted some measure of a bad omen, he being convinced that this coincidence of birthdays was a bad omen and his daughter not.

   What if we knew the true probabilities of a horse?

   • In a real race, the true prob- abilities are not known. If we knew the true probabilities or had better estimates than the pari-mutuel pool offers. we might find horses with a positive expectation. Then we could simply bet directly on those horses instead of developing this method for the daily double.

   How many horses can a jockey ride?

   • For example, and following the horse racing application, suppose we observe the results of many horse races. In each race we assume two horses, horse A vs horse B, to keep it simple. Any of 5 jockeys can ride the horses. Maybe jockey #1 tends to ride horse A more often. Maybe jockey #2 is an unskilled jockey, etc.

   Does horse a win with probability 1 / 2?

   • Horse A wins with probability 1 / 2. Since the vector v is in the kernel, the values PAB, PAC, … are the same as before. This shows that for PAB = PAC = … = 1 / 2, it is possible that A wins with probability 1 / 3, as well as that A wins with probability 1 / 2. (Note that the constructed counterexample is the same as in the post of Micah.)

   Can you measure the speed of a horse with a single number?

   • In one of his books he commented that 'measuring the speed of a horse with a single number is like nailing jelly to a tree.' It's a game of judgment, not mathematics. Expanding on Tony K's comment, here's an (extreme) example of why it's impossible. Let's say that we have three very strange horses: seconds.
