I disagree. I am fully capable of reading PPs.
If Jacobson (or anyone) takes a horse that recently won for 25k at Aqueduct and dumps him for 5k at Suffolk, I blame him just as much as the dumb sap that claimed him for 5k. He clearly isn't doing right by the horse in my opinion. Sure, he takes care of them when things are going well, but as soon as they turn south, he has no regard for their welfare.
But again, the system is enabling him. It could and should be fixed.
