The horse died ... and atleast one owner (Maggie Moss) reached in to claim the horse for 25K.

Those are the types Gill will claim now ... except think 4K-to-10K instead of 25K. Some turn it around - some don't - and some go down.

I doubt the fate of the majority of those horses would have been any different if they raced under small-fry connections.
Tell that to the Gil horse that had his leg sawed off at GP a few years back.
