Instead of accusing people of lying, why don't you call the CHRB and ask them if and how they make sure that a suspended trainer is not still collecting money while he's on suspension.
As stated before, the CHRB was a joke for years. They fined trainers for offenses which should have been suspensions and then, worst of all, kept it under the table.
I have ZERO confidence in them or any other racing commission to get much of anything done right. In one major racing state you can shockwave your horse the day before a race or even the day of the race if it is done on a property other than a race track or certified training center. The commission wrote a bad rule and has never got around to fixing the loophole. They know about it but its not on their "agenda".
