How dumb can people be to think anything changed other than the name Michael instead of Ronnie. Ronnie is still the lord and master of the Burke Brigade. As it will always be. Don't overlook Weaver in the mix, as long as they are together THEY will make money.

So it’s much easier to pass on the bottles then all that training knowledge in Ronnie’s head

Pass bottles to who, again if you can find a Burke employee past or present to say they saw something, let them speak. I haven't yet.

Anyone who believes that the suspension of the grand marshal of the Burke Parade has changed the day to day activities is delusional. The investigators will never make sure that he is not around the stock!

A big part of his success IS A NUMBERS GAME. With him (them) racing hundreds of horses, he can move them around to fit the cheapest condition at the various tracks. If a certain state has condition benefits for state breds, he goes out and buys them. no matter how low the class. If a certain horse goes bad, he has 10 more that fit that class. These factors give him a big edge. And it's no secret about his training method. Many former assistant trainers know the rule. He trains the hell out of them.

Ron is still calling all the shots it's just a move on paper. He is probably giving them too.

It could not be more obvious that sending a trainer to the penalty box, and replacing him with another trainer from the same barn, is equivalent to making no change at all. I say any suspension that runs more than 6 months requires a real trainer change -- physical, books, money, everything. Like when Baffert got set down in CA. He had to shut down his entire barn, equipment and all, vacate the grounds, etc. NYRA caught Dutrow while he was on suspension by auditing his books and bank accounts, and tapping his phones.
