If you believe in probability and statistics....Is anyone a favorite to run 100 in three attempts?

If someone is 20% to run 100 in one try, they are close to even money to run 100 at least once in three tries. There was no one on the list at 20% but then it was on Diamonds.
I used to think it was remarkable that Richie Florence would bet on 10 tries for a 100-ball run.
People used to bet that Eufemia would run 200 in a practice session. A friend of mine spent a week in Syracuse in the late 1070s and on four consecutive nights Cranfield ran over 200 practicing in his home room.
