Cashy, I haven't said anything should be banned. Wherever there is a lucrative opening for money to be made, irrespective of how dangerous or risky an endeavour may be there will always be people willing to take that risk.

My objection if it is seen as such, is with the inclusion of an innocent third party (Human or Animal) unable to choose their own course & have it enforced on them. This particular bone of contention goes beyond the boundaries of purely animals in sport.
