Agreed.

It doesn't make a good account of his honesty if he will bend the rules for this naproxin, he may for a more powerful drug as well.

And this is the big and central problem in this game is that Wolfson will get nothing but a slap on the wrist for this. He'll be suspended for like 7 days, and his assistant will win at 25% while he's gone, he'll come back and the barn will be firing on all cylinders at will win again at 25%. This is an instance where racing needs to stand up and get tough. The guy had a horse disqualified because of a drug positive in Chicago. Suspend him for 6 months or a year. When they suspend him for 7 days, he'll come back, and he'll have all his stock back again. Gann should take the horses he owns away from him. That might resonate.

Jersey are you suprised? This cheat has improved horses off of great trainers for the last few years. He is the Scott lake/Jeff Mullins of Florida. Hopefully they give him a long suspension. Guys like Wolfson are bad for the game.
