within moments of each other, Surrey BC (fraser downs) and Edmonton, Alberta (Century Mile) fri night got hit with practically identical WIN bridgejumpers..so me 8000 each in pools just over 10,000 ----yes, WIN POOL.

*One success, the 8th in Edmonton. a 1-9 winner
*Not so much in Surrey, a 1-5 loser, in the 5th leading to ridiculous 34.00 winner on a not bad animal
*And to close the Edmonton card, looks like another few thousand dropped on co-fave horse who ended 4th...and the other co-fave on the drop, J Brendon Campbell's #8..an amazing payout, a 17.00 winner!!.

In summation
..this time, win pool hits..gaudy sh#t
...money laundering will always be a question.
...how about this wrinkle, is either operation 'subsidized' by either their provinces agriculture govt grant money to stay in biz or are either track's casino bosses expect certain handle to keep tracks running.

Is it possible horsemen 'bumping the handle' these days to ensure further support, though unlike some C operations in Canada, these two are above the water line.

NO..ill go with mad bombing idea and money laundering...at least for now.

Could be .....it's complicated...... .....but no gambler is making money betting huge amounts on horses to get 5%.

all it is, just highly rebated computer assisted wagering looking to make money

nothing else to be read into it

making a win- bet--they are rebated higher than the $2.10 they receive--so, to them, its worth it

it isnt worth it-too many blow up
