Also for the argument about a jockey or trainer betting against his own horse what the hell kind of a point is there to that? They would stand to win more if their horse won than if they bet on another horse in the race which is a crap shoot anyway. Let's say the jock/trainer have an entry in a 50K allowance race. The winning purse is 30K, the jock and trainer get 10% each of that 30K so that's 3K to each for winning the race. How the hell are they going to win 3K on the race betting on the race while betting against their horse?

How does the call an announcer makes have any bearing on the outcome of the race? Conflict of interest or not?

My question is... which came first, the chicken, or the egg?
