nope.
but it's hard not to know (for example) about steve asmussens double digit positives, as well as the fines and suspensions. biancone is banned from hong kong, just got days, and then a fine...so why hire either of them? positives, suspensions and fines are a matter of public record. why should chronic offenders be tolerated? if an owner doesn't care, or isn't interested in due diligence, then i think it is in the sports best interests to tell certain individuals that their services are no longer desired. that racetracks will no longer open their doors to these folks.
do you remember a few years ago, an owner named gill was denied stall space? very simple remedy, and one that should be employed more often.
