O.K.,listened to the archive of Wednesday's interview with Brown.I mentioned this CO2 gap when Oracle asked about Mitchell going to the detention barn 12/18.Tons of these guys are giving their horses these alkalizing agents,and remaining under the limit of Co2 of 36,or 37.The horse(on his own is about 30,or maybe 31,)and these guys give them tablets(Mullins says they are for their stomach) to get their CO2 to 34,or 35.Once in a while,the horse gets dehydrated etc.,and they exceed the limit of 36,or 37.They give them a huge gap from 30to36,or 37(to cheat with no punishment.)The track knows these guys cheat(by running 34-35,)but they set the limit at the high extreme of 36,or 37,because that level is way too high to be gotten naturally.This is why these trainer/owners (you might call them no names) can't win races.Their horses are running at 30 co2 levels,and Mullins and many others are running horses with CO2 levels of 34 or 35.When you see some Joe Blow claim a horse,and they can't come close to what the previous trainer's beyers etc. were.....well,now you know atleast 1 of the reasons for that.Take note of the guys Periban claimed those horses away from,and miraculously turned around(earlier in the Anita meet.).Most likely,those low profile guys weren't using any alkalizing agents at all.
