I'm looking at it from a racing standpoint. Not political.

I'm all for being sporting and thought they made the right choice going to Dubai, but going to Ascot is dumb.

He has no real shot in any race they are pointing him to.

He was uncovered throughout, but haven't we been told he likes being kept outside of horses in the clear, and not taking dirt in his face, like the PA. Derby?

Which one is it?

You're right that it won't be easy to have more accountability. But, just because it might not be easy doesn't mean it doesn't have to start somewhere. I also don't see this kind of thing happening...

No need to make it difficult. For me, it boils down to common sense. Does anyone think Espinoza rode his horse to win?

Not even close.

Maybe if the horses were coupled, or at least shared the same owner if coupling wasn't allowed it would make sense. That wasn't the case here.
