That's a good point. I don't think it's a benefit of the doubt. There are people who believe that a specific trainer is great BECAUSE of the chemistry and the cheating. There are others who know it. And, OTOH, there are those who know that even though someone is cheating, has cheated in a particular case, etc. -- even though, that specific trainer is a good trainer, excellent horseman, etc. However, like I said -- it doesn't matter.
