This issue(illegal drugs) is quite hard on the TRAINERS/OWNERS that don't cheat(or don't cheat as much.)It is less an issue for the horse bettor.It means more short prices for the bettor (when a cheater claims a horse.)See,people who bet horses know who is best at getting horses to run.They don't know how they do get them to run.The high % trainers don't particularly hurt the horseplayers all that much(just makes it chalky.)What hurts the horseplayer are the guys that only drug certain horses at long odds.The awful thing about Harness is that people get zero entertainment when the horses they play break-go off stride etc. As long as they ignore that p.r. wound,that sport will continue to be a joke.
