This is simply the usual propaganda from the self proclaimed "do-gooders" who think nothing of dragging the sport through the mud to try to continue their PR campaign.

Taking a single raw time on a single race and using it to "prove" a theory?

I guess we should just erase the last 30 years from the history books.

So maybe John Ward will give back his Derby Trophy, won in such a fast time because the win was clearly a product of a steroid fueled Monarchos who has been a bust at stud. You know because if he didn't live up to expectation at stud then surely he was just a drug fueled fraud. The "weakened breed" and gene theory.

These people will sink to any low to try to keep their agenda alive. I laugh at those who fall for it. I cry when I think that these dopes actually think this continued muckraking campaign is a good thing.

The most ironic thing? That now supposedly the KY hardboots are happy because lesser pedigreed horses won the first 2 legs of the triple Crown. You know everybody knows how sound Forestry's have been...

Yeah Joe, Forestry is a stallion that we should all be modeling our breeding programs after...

You can't make this **** up
