Because this is the most important issue in horseracing, and I think it will be for the next 10 years. I agree anything done to cheat the public out of one cent is abhorrent and intolerable. Period. As the public, shouldn't we be a little more up to speed on the subject?

I hear people say, "That horse must have been drugged" for an unexpected performance. To even barely support that argument, there has to be a reality check - there has to actually be a drug or concoction that could have been given to result in that performance.

Do I think there are trainers that amazingly and regularly move up horses, not due to hay, oats and training? Of course I do. I'm not ignorant.
