TTimes article...they claim it's been 8 weeks...but like you I can't understand why they wouldn't totally cut this horse off a LONG way out if they knew they were pointing towards this race....makes them look really bad IMO.

meds...they tested him pre-race to make sure he was clear, and he wasn't--so the connections had him scratched rather than take the chance he wouldn't be clean post-race, which would cost them much $$$$$. of course the bettors already lost much $$$$ who bet on him, and they are EXCEEDINGLY pissed.
