Or the snake venom issue.

Ordinarily, this would be a decent first step. Now, if they find him responsible on the alleged cobra venom issue, he's a repeat offender, and more serious penalties would be warranted. What concerns me is that, given this fact, Biancone has chosen not to appeal the finding.

It amazes me that he has apparently not lost a single owner despite all his transgressions this year. First, Martin Schwartz pulls a Dean Martin/Thorton Mellon when asked about Biancone by DRF, and then the West Point guys thank him for the wonderful job he did with Irish Smoke before he went on his little state-imposed "holiday." Are these guys actually that naive, or is it that they simply do not care if they are associated with trainers that have the track record that a Biancone has?

The owners just don't seem to care as long as Pat keeps winning races and making them money.

I am not condemning or condoning. However, there is more to it and it is not as simplistic as it's made to appear here.
