but an enhanced stud...well, how fast would he have been without help? would he have bled? was he on steroids? studs have to prove themselves on the track pretty much. otherwise, you have to support him all on your own, as no one will have heard of him. so they have to go out on the track and give it all they've got--or all the vet has!
