Define less medication and I may agree with you. But I doubt it would change things much.
Medication is an easy target but it is a complex subject that very few who are qualified to discuss it are willing to, for fear of being cast out as a politically incorrect druggie. Advances in modern day medicine have helped every athlete in the world except baseball pitchers and supposedly thoroughbred horses.

I agree that it's an easy target. And I'm certainly not qualified in any manner to discuss it....not even remotely close.

However, I have a hunch that the game, and the horse itself, would both be a lot better off with less medication (both legal and illegal) in the sport.
