In a way it ties in with the Mott/assistant trainer discussion here. I think everyone respects Bill Mott, and I'm sure anyone working for him for 20 years is great at their job. No one views him as a "cheater". But it doesn't invalidate the point that for the regular player not in the know, we don't know who is training the horse. And this happens way too often. We've got insiders who know, and the majority of us who don't, and that's why the number of people who care about the game drops every day.

I read metro's earlier post...but the proof isn't there that the 60K late wager was placed by a computer group. If metro is right, and the computer group had a betting interest in 3 horses in that race...then, why did the late-late money avoid the other 2 horses?
