Agree with this it is a tough situation. What is cheating? Is burning up your mount when not riding for Chad so your brother on the Chad rolls by late cheating? Is not finishing the race on your Chad while your brother wins on the longer priced Chad cheating? At the absolute VERY LEAST they need to be coupled when riding for Chad (or same trainer) WE do agree the OPTICS ARE BAD. Maybe we do nothing and wait for the computer savy person to put together the case that statistically suggests collusion and we wake up to a New York Times article suggesting the same and suffer another punch in the nose as a sport.
