Didn't he win a WAYI race anyways where they're supposed to pay the supplement for him or something?

Not that we haven't already established how ridiculous this whole thing is, but it's even worse in this case. The backer would get 50% of the "profit." So, $100K would yield a profit of $250K if he won, $50K if he ran second and $5K (!) if he ran third. Obviously, Ben's Cat won't be 5-2 or less in the race.
