Default Australian racing pool manipulation tonight

Anybody else watching Australian racing Monday night? In the later races, someone has jumped in with dumping $20K plus into the win pool on a particular horse, then using a computer (looks like) to place appropriate win amounts (thousands) on the other horses in the race to gain a profit no matter who wins.

In other words, American pools (I think the US pools go through Canada and comingle) that are normally a few thousand dollars, are tonight up around thirty thousand.

Very interesting ....
