Although racing has an enormous amount of cleaning up to do, just look at the rest of sports...Baseball has the steroid problem, football has the off the field issues, where do I begin with basketball? It's a problem with all sports now. I don't think racing has to browbeat itself, just clean things up.

Well, i thought of the same thing in regards to Catalano, crap would be flying.

I need to find out of they do TCO2 testing in Illinois, that is what I want to know.

I don't think Catalano is blood doping, becuase from what I read about it, it takes time, and he runs his horses every 14-21 days.

But I wouldn't be past the idea that Catalano might be using something that makes sure the last alot longer. Some of his horses do get a mysterious late quick, right when they look like they are about to hang, looks like they shoot out of a cannon.

Sounds like they found the buried treasure left by Shuman and Gill at Gulfstream a few years back.

What does NJ think they are going to find from the blood of these Levine horses? I doubt they trip him up with this.
