Interesting article, JB.
If it really happened as the article laid out, I would be surprised. It even sounds like a mild form of "race fixing". Not sure how the rules of racing are written, but multiple parties on separate horses/betting interests, colluding on positioning, pace and strategy, sounds shady.
Of course, the article makes it look like Frankel is just too "brilliant" and he outsmarted Ramsay.
Be curious what others think, but I don't get a good feeling after reading the article. I would prefer those kinds of discussions not take place. (and this comes from somebody whose saving grace on Saturday was Ghostzapper's win)
