The Rabbit effect on owners and bettors (928 Views)

So Juddmonte Farms/Chad Brown enters 2 horses , Flintshire and Inordinate, in the Sword Dancer and spend approx $16K EACH in nomination and entry fees for a Million Dollar race. Winner gets $535K and 5th place “Rabbit” gets $40K. That’s almost $600K. Winning Jockey get 10% of the $535K ($53,500) and 5th place “Rabbit” jock gets 5% of the $40K ($ 2000) Or, do the jockeys split the combined $55,500 for their predetermined "collusive" riding? Maker’s horse, Roman Approval, ends up getting slammed by rabbit and comes in 6th when maybe he finishes 4th for an extra $35K to his owners. The “acceptable” rabbit strategy seem unethical to me, especially if jocks share the 2 mount fees. Does anyone know if that’s what happens?
