It made more sense than Pletcher suggesting his horse tested for mepivacaine a couple years back because the horse in the adjacent stall (who apparently was being blocked) coughed and aerosolized the stuff, which of course was breathed in by the horse in question, Tales of Glory.

Also, at one point, when Jeff Mullins got his mepivacaine positive (its almost like a rite of passage ain't it?) it was blamed on a groom taking out a horse entered to race instead of a lame horse the vet was supposed to block (never mind that any diligent vet would have trotted the horse first to ensure the horse was unsound before proceeding--then again, who's to say that the runner was sound?).

Scott Blasi has the best assistant trainer job going.

Here's Curlin, Scott, have fun for the next 6 months with him.

just think of the press overseas should curlin go to the arc--with his asst trainer due to the head trainer getting a drug pos.

That is the single most ridiculous explanation I've ever heard.
