Read the latest Assmussen stuff and you will get the idea about blaming who gave the horse what and when. Records get kept, Trainers and Vets go down hard. Vets should seek out clean trainers and vice versa. Some of this crap they put in them before races is clearly so the horse will not feel pain during the race. Its certainly not to keep them comfortable while they are lame.

It reminds me of these guys I use to run with that were hard core and just poured Aleve down their throats and all sorts of other stuff BEFORE they raced. I always wanted to know exactly what was hurting so I could fix it with rest and appropriate exercise. The horses are innocent little children.
