Welcome Thythande! In general I have always heard good things about Kentucky Downs as far as management, takeout and full fields. I know some here have visited that track and have reported that they quite enjoyed the boutique racing there.
Regarding that particular race, I'm not sure it's fair to form an opinion about anything nefarious based on a 2 YO Maiden Allowance in September, especially with only a single race history for the winner, albeit one where the horse ran quite poorly. Based on that one race history, and the switch to Turf, it doesn't seem unfair that the public let it off at 45-1 especially with 5 First Timers and plenty of other horses who certainly ran better previously. Possibly the horse had unreported trouble in its debut, or was getting the hang of racing. Plenty of explanations.
Perhaps you could suggest other races won at longer odds where there were more PPs for the runners? We could run it through RDSS to take a look.
Cheers,
Ted
