Or is it just "business as usual" for people to get screwed consistently when buying or selling a racehorse?
I work in real estate now and I worked for a Blood-stock agent and I see a big difference in the "chance" you take on all sides in the Blood-stock industry. Certainly not all people are bad, but if there were more controls on the industry (The Task Force is a big step) I think you would see less law suits like this one and the one Jess Jackson filed. When a horse whose buyer's vet passed shows up at their trainers farm and the buyer makes up reasons to not pay, that is a problem.
