and no, it doesn't 'make sense' that asmussen would risk something like that--but jails are FULL of people who you could say the same about--not a very good defense.

I think one of the main reasons that some of these cheating trainers are doing so well is because they use nerve blocks to take away the pain. Biancone was doing it with snake venom. These other guys are using stuff like mepivicaine and lidocaine.

The question is how they are normally able to give mepivicaine without it showing up. They must have some method of masking it that works 99% of the time. Asmussen, Pletcher, Mullins, etc. have all been caught using it. I highly doubt that the times they got caught were the only times that they used it. I think the times they got caught were just the tip of the iceberg.
