The Breeders' Cup released its findings and rulings Friday following an investigation into allegations of collusion and impropriety in this year's Breeders' Cup Betting Challenge.
“Following the conclusion of [Stoll Keenon Ogden]'s investigation, BCL has determined that Eric Moomey and Roger Ball colluded to increase the number of entries available to them and otherwise attempted to manipulate the tournament's results in violation of the BCBC Official Rules,” a release stated. “Consequently, Mr. Moomey's entry which resulted in a 9th place finish (and within the prize pool) is disqualified and the participants that finished 10th through 19th will each move up one place in the BCBC final standings and prize money will be reallocated accordingly.”
No actions were taken against other contest players accused of collusion due to “insufficient evidence to support a finding that a violation of the rules occurred.”
