I kind of did some snooping on these shockwave machines. Appears that now you can get them for as low as $1200. It's like anything electronic, they start to plummet in price really fast. These will be used by everybody really soon if they aren't already. If these things work as well as some claim, those running off the farm or training center will def. have an advantage. If there are any number in use yet betters should be able to nail on horses shipping in that are using these. But I'd bet you they are being used right up till race day in more barns than anybody would like to admit. There are so many different machines/devices being used now days that nobody probably pays any attention anymore.

Yeah, but Barrera was mostly winning and Puentes was mostly losing.

Thanks. Eye-opening post.

I've always look with skepticism on anyone accused who responds by saying "nothing has been proven".
