Default Re: What % of major tourney players are backed by sheets/bax?

[ QUOTE ]


I can't speak for The Camel, but that's not what I said is likely to be going on. I simply said I think there are probably backers w/ multiple horses in tournies who take advantage of that at opportune times.

Yeah, but the backer has to convince or incentivize the horse to act against his self-interest and that seems like a major hurdle. Feels like we are going around in circles here. I am probably naive, it does probably go on, but to acheive a fucntioning, cheating stable still seems far-out to me as a practical matter.
