In that situation the client is being considered first. I have no problem with that senario. Look, everyone can spend/through away their money as he/she sees fit. This is still a free country, last I looked. We all gripe about how expensive this sport is, in particular the handling fees and expenses. Then you have those who have no problem with letting a handler subsidise campaigning his own animal at their expense. If they wish to do so, hey have at it!
