1 happens all the time, thats part of racing...2 seems a little shady.
I doubt it happens a lot. You mean to tell me that you'd see nothing wrong with O'Neill having a horse that he thinks should probably be running at $40k but having Solis exercise the horse and then convince him that he could probably get away with putting him in for $25k.......and then Solis' roommate claiming him for $25k?
