Would Barry Bonds have hit 70 HR's without the clear? He was never "officially" sanctioned so should we believe it was just his natural talent and good genes that allowed him to carry on into his 40's? the difference is we have a pretty good idea of barry's skill sets PRIOR to Balco. We dont have such a period with Dutrow do we? And why do his horses do better when he isnt around or in touch?

So Dutrow's only success has come from meds. LOL stop now its getting embarassing.. I guess Kiaran, Pletcher Assmussen who else should we toss in the nothing without a needle pile?

What period of their training careers were they not using an edge? No one is saying that they are idiots. But trying to disregard the stain of drugs on these guys reputations makes it hard for some of us to declare them the geniuses that you seem to want to annoint them as.
