H64: course likes favourite

Mechanism and rationale

Favourite at a course where such runners have beaten the market by 25%+ before. Tracks where the form works out: fair, galloping, few hard-luck stories.

The rule

cp_favourite_runs >= 60 AND cp_favourite_wins >= 1.25 * cp_favourite_exp

Reads: cp_favourite_runs, cp_favourite_wins, cp_favourite_exp
