seems a shame that a cheating trainer can get caught numerous times, get's anywhere from a two week to six month 'vacation' while someone subs, and then right back to it, and a jock gets five years for having an illegal object. yes, he should be punished, but why do trainers get it relatively easy??

If you catch a trainer with a needle in his hand administering a class 1 drug than they should get the same sentence. However, there are also mitigating factors in the case of a trainer being that it is almost impossible to monitor every horse 24 hours a day and the chain of control of the samples being tested is also beyond their control. Anyone who thinks that labs or vets do not make mistakes is dreaming.
Hitting a horse with an electrical device has a whole lot less circumstance surrounding it.
