Err, checking the line on a horse race is a much more reliable way to tell who has what chance of winning than going to the stables as a random person, and most likely for a professional as well.

Excellent point. I’d go further and say it’s likely to be the single best information, much better than consuming media about horse racing.

My point is that the "learning about what is happening in the world around us" part falls flat when what comes next is "by finding which person to copy test answers from."

I mean, yeah, you technically learn something, but the limitations undercut the sales-pitch.
