I feel he has been treated unfairly with suspensions + public shame 
From what I had read
this so-called drug in question causing the suspension

Regardless if it is performance enhancing or not, he's had horses test over the limit in the Derby and Oaks in consecutive years. As the "face" of the sport, shouldn't he be better than that?
This of course ignores the 7 horses he had drop dead out of nowhere years ago, the countless other overages and everything else.
If anything, he's been treated too well by the media and others for allowing this to go one for so long. He's been able to become rich beyond his wildest dreams because of this sport. Maybe he should treat it with a little more respect than he's shown.
