PVal is certifiably sick. That doesn't excuse his behavior, but it does make me somewhat sympathetic. The trainers that are cheating have no excuse except greed.
I do agree with increasing the weight limits for jockeys.

I agree with you about P Val. I would forgive him before I would forgive cheating trainers. He's only hurting himself. In addition, as long as he's tested every day and he's clean while he's riding, that is the main thing as far as I'm concerned. If he takes off for a few weeks, I'm not sure that it is necessarily anyone's business what he's doing while he's not riding.
