Nobody has mentioned the drug that was given daily to all horses to increase metabolism. Does anyone doubt that was true? Didn't we here of this same thing being done by Baffert? Some thyroid med for horses without a thyroid condition?
In my opinion, this is the absolute worst thing in the video. Giving drugs to enhance performance, not for medical reasons, is as bad as it gets. This was a known practice for Baffert. And what did he get for it? Nothing. That is why I have no faith in the people running the racetracks to actually do anything.
I wonder what a 9 minute video made by horse racing about the care of horses would look like. It would be the all wonderful care and love of horses. Obviously both would be extreme. The truth is in the middle somewhere, and some of the middle isn't pretty right now.
