Default Staking dilemma

Scenario :

Staking team is built of 3 backers, A, B and C.

A has a horse from before the team was formed. Let's say he has 9k in makeup. A wants to bring him onto the team, what amount should B and C pay for this right?

It seems to me that theoretically if horse gets out of makeup 100% of the time, B and C should pay A 3k each. Of course this is not a certainty, hence the dilemma.

My brain has exploded thinking of what to do.

For the love of [censored], MTTC help us!

I obv suck at this but I think that B and C should be in on A in all future but backtrack it since the 9k in makeup was all given by A when horse gets even first 9k goes to A and rest is split up based on the standard deal.

While if the horse gets further into makeup BC can now cover the future buyins It doesn't have to be equal sending as long as everyone has an equal share in profits just because say B is giving the money doesn't mean A and C aren't still invovled. Now it's just as if it was always going on with all 3.

If person A is ok with that deal it sounds fair to me...translate...

A gets first 9000 made by stakee and then the horse is split 3 ways.

sounds fair...

There is no fair or correct solution to this problem. The player is worth a certain amount to a backer, in NPV terms, over the length of the backing period, call it X (obviously X is subject to a great amount of uncertainty, but ignore that for a second). B and C should be willing to pay any amount up to 1/3 X for the right to receive 1/3 of the player's profits over the backing period. Obviously, if the player were JC Tran live or Imper1um online, B and C should be willing to pay a lot more than they would for someone else. Essentially, A is giving up something of very uncertain value -- to wit, 2/3 of the profits of the player -- and how the parties value that something is dependent on the parties.

Why would someone want a player who is in makeup? Doesn't that mean she is a losing player?

Man I thought you guys were smart.
