But there will be people that DO know the true story and they will be able to take advantage, and that is unfair to the "horseplayer". BB's value aside, because I'm sure BB is insured for a zillion dollars at this point, but I wouldn't or couldn't put anything past Dutrow. This is a guy that ran a horse in back to back races at NYRA. Yes it was the last on Sunday and first on Wednesday, but still that's 2 race in like 68 hours. So, most of us will be unaware of the true situation, and there will be millions and millions of dollars bet on the race. Running this horse at less than 100% is what is most likely going to happen. And as someone else has already pointed out, they've got the perfect excuse.

I think Dutrow should show everyone his 180K win ticket on to assure the betting public that ALL systems are go.

You know he actually ran a horse on consecutive days, right? In stakes races, no less?
