Tony--
OK, I give up. No more posts on AZERI. Nevertheless, there were some interesting and insightful comments/opinions given in this thread.
On a separate, but familiar issue. Steve Haskin was the BLOODHORSE reporter who printed pieces of Frankel's "strategy" conversation with the owner of RIM.
My buddy e-mailed Haskin on his thoughts and also asked if Haskin believes this can be construed as a form of "race fixing."
Haskin wrote him back saying he was overreacting and that trainers or trainers/owners of other horses discuss racing startegy all the time and there was nothing wrong with them agreeing on the strategy that was most beneficial for each of their horses.
I'm wondering if Haskin, who sounds brainless to me, was at least smart enough to crush the exacta.
Good Luck,
Joe B.
