She's had a few recent suspensions.

Not to mention she single handedly accounted for 13 of the first 48 steroid overages at the states 3 race tracks....but hey, only doing stuff at 27% has to feel like a gigantic disapointment for her.

Using archived result charts, I was able to look up each race where a horse tested positive out of and identify each trainer of the 48 horses. The list was dominated by one in-state trainer and featured multiple offenses from a few others.

One high-profile trainer whose army of horses didn't produce a single positive test was Scott Lake, who currently ranks second in the nation in races won and has a large stable racing in Pennsylvania. While the big-volume Lake stable pitched a shutout, horses trained by the magical Stephanie Beattie racked up an alarming 13 positive steroid tests -- eight more than the next highest trainer.

And I wouldn't care if she never had a positive... all I need to do is witness the form reversals and observe her magic to know she's possibly the games greatest alchemist of the past decade.
