Kev-- taking your question literally, I do know Sis City was claimed using Ragozin, and I do know Anderson uses Ragozin.

I also know that the claim of involvement with Musique Toujours, which you repeated, was NOT true, just as the claim of involvement with Lava Man was not. Which brings us to the point-- on the record, it would be silly to take the claims of success that you mention (or any others of that outfit) at face value. It's only a fluke that they were caught lying in the cases we know about, one in published reports, the other because the real hero is a customer of ours-- there is no way to know how many of the other "successes" are not true.

A lot of horsemen do use Ragozin, as I have pointed out before, because they are charged virtually nothing (like, maybe 5% of what we charge)-- horsemen pay Ragozin a lot closer to what they pay the DRF annually than to what they pay us, and ALL the top horsemen use the DRF, so big deal. In fact, if you get a chance, ask Ron Anderson what he pays Ragozin-- he's not a bad guy, for a jock agent. Work out what that amount is in percentage terms, relative to what Bailey earns (a tiny fraction of 1%).

On the contest/handicapper front, comparison is silly, considering that the last 3 NTRA National winners were our guys, and how well our guys have done in other big tournaments.
