all they can do is suspend these guys. they don't have the legal right to track phone calls and finances. they have no right to subpoena any of that stuff. it's horse racing, not the fbi. they can limit access to property under their control, that's about it.

They may have the right to do some investigating but they wont. Usually comes down to the budgets are too small and the investigators aren't that bright or ambitious. Biggest problem is that owners dont seem to care about integrity any more. These guys know that they can push the envelope and not get burned too bad because the owners will stick with them. I will guarantee that people who post on this board care far more about integrity in regard to illegal medication than most big owners. Example #1 Beverly Lewis. Fires Lukas hires Blasi/Assmussen. I mean there was not one other trainer out there that could have taken those horses? She had to go with a guy with 2 6 month suspensions? I understand that the call was made by an "advisor" but she has ultimate responsibility. There are some owners out there that do care but so many don't so ......
