concorrenti (di livello palesemente inferiore)
Explanation:
"also-run" identifica i partecipanti a una competizione, in questo caso specifico i concorrenti nello stesso mercato, aventi capacità o caratteristiche nettamente inferiori.

In pratica, dopo il gruppo di candidati alla vittoria e dei favoriti, sono gli 'altri', a grande distanza, partecipanti senza alcuna speranze di vincere.
