Except that Ace is a tranquilizer that calms horses down... Not "juice" them up... And Mepivicaine is nothing but a local that is used whenever you do minor surgery on a horse like dental work. Both can linger in a horse's bloodstream at varying rates. If Asmussen, and I'm no fan of his, is doing "something" it ISN'T with the likes of Mepivicaine and Ace.
Following the Buff Bradley/Brass Hat situation tells you everything you need to know about these situations. Manufacturer guidelines said that the product would be in a horses system for up to 23 days. Buff gave it to Hat 28days out. The 3 vets that testified on the Bradley's behalf tested on a variety of horses and found that the detectable trace amounts could linger UP TO 44 DAYS in a horse's bloodstream... So I guess Buff is "juicing" Brass Hat in your mind too? Whatever we may think "supertrainers" or "move up" trainers are doing, it's NOT the things that these suspensions (Asmussen, Pletcher, Dutrow) are citing...
