As for you other assertions, you are wrong. There are people that do exactly what you say shouldn't be worried about. They obviously are using computers and jockey ability is a part of the equation. I also suspect they are much better gamblers than you.
It obviously was a unique situation and really what could be done? Go down and perform a physical on Pedroza? You may be right in that a certain, very small % of betters may have made a different decision based on the jockey change but being right and having a workable solution are two seperate items.

The best part of Ron Anderson's radio interview with Roger was when you could hear the toilet flush on Anderson's end of the phone call. Roger was amused and Ron started to studder abit. You can hear the show replay at http://www.rogerstein.com/

The stewards could certainly ask for proof. At the very least, he should now be punished for obviously making a joke of the system. Gomez can then pay him for his suspension time as well. That way maybe people would think again before trying this again.
