Default Random Conspiracy theory about Curlin

So I just realized something, and it is probably out there, and while I understand the reason to run in Dubai, the prep race still kinda makes me wonder some things.

What if, the Shiek also has a handshake agreement with Jackson and the other partners that 'got bought out' to stand Curlin, I mean, given his buying binge, it sure as hell would make sense for him to have his hands on Curlin also.

Lets think about this in steps on how it could have happen

1) Sheik's peeps call Jackson and other people, tell them they want Curlin, Jackson says sure but pending lawsuit a pain in the ass
2) Sheik says I will pay this amount, just figure it out on your end
3) Jackson and those other people come up with plan to consolidate ownership to give Jackson 'power', but keep other people silent partners and 'still in' on the stud deal.
4) Sheik is happy, says he wants Curlin to run in both prep bs race, and the DWC

While their are obvious ethical issues here, from a legal standpoint, I don't see anything wrong with the above.
