Wow!! A $2500 fine! BFD. That is like fining an NBA player $50,000 when he is earning $10 mil a year.. In the meantime someone else sends his horses to the starting gate and he continues to earn a living.

A message should be sent. No horse that is officially being trained by him should be allowed to start during the 6 month suspension. Then maybe the owners will think twice about who they entrust the care of their horses to.
