Unfair how? He's the owner. He's responsible, or at least his racing manager is. You think Asmussen just decided to enter this $700K yearling for $50K without getting the OK from Jackson or one of his representatives?? Off the horse's first race of the year (74 Beyer), it's hard to believe that this horse would be tagged for $50K without there being a serious (soundness) issue and the owner being made aware of it.
