It happens, it's November. A winner you haven't backed loses the same stake regardless of the price. If you're not studying form what else can you do (barring inside knowledge)? By definition these winners are incredibly hard to find. You might get one, you won't find more, so long term you're sunk. Stick to form and you have a chance of coming out ahead, provided you know how to read it. But assume these long ones will not be contributing.
There's an outside chance it could be the clocks going back.
Horses don't understand time zones or why they are being woken up an hour early when it's still dark.
So it might be that some suffer the equivalent of jet lag.

Of course, some horses think putting the clocks back makes it lighter in the morning but what do they know?
ireland particularly,
1000/1 bsp shot 2nd, probably should've won.

beaten 122 lengths at 125/1, beaten 51 lengths at 300/1, beaten 50 lengths at 400/1, beaten 49 lengths at 300/1
so, safe to assume this is one of the slowest horses in the whole of ireland
... running on 2nd.
good luck.

the only thing you could say about it is it has been getting beaten by less each run. so is steadily improving.
51 lengths, 50 lengths, 49 lengths ..
