Keep giving penalties like 30 days for 5 positives and allow the horses to run under a different trainers name during the suspension and things like this will never go away. There really is no strong deterrent to not try to take an edge and maybe push the envelope.

I know it involves different jurisdictions, but something isn't right when you compare some of the punishments meted out to trainers with the one-year suspension that Donnie Meche received for not giving his best effort aboard a Steve Asmussen trained 3-5 favorite in a futurity trial at Delta Downs.

it would be nice if they could find a way to do that. but those who won on the canani horses might not agree, as they wouldn't want to give their winnings back.

It's a sickening situation. If they keep samples I'd love to see and independent lab come in and do tests.

Heard Canani talking in the paddock today in his Cuban shirt that he stole from his dad that 'my lawyers can't get in contact with you until next week' and he stormed away.

This was after he just put in a 50 cent P4 at Del Mar that cost $250, LOL.

Keep an eye for the horses that got positives, some have been dropped from the clouds even more so then normal and ran horrible. What is hilarious is that people still claim off the guy.

Most importantly, my girl Ingrid Mason can sure wear an Ed Hardy shirt, Drugs would have a field day with her.
