That's a great point. I know of 3 trainers/owners who brought this up to the commissions and they were laughed at. Literally. They ended up quitting. Great people who raced clean and loved the business. Gone bc no one would listen. Hopefully they're listening now.

What everyone seems to overlook is the actual amount stolen.  You can somewhat calculate purses...what you can't calculate is the money others put into their losing efforts due to the cheats.  How about the millions lost by gamblers basing their wagering off program lines...not what was injected into the horse earlier that week.  The actual amount can't be accurately measured.  You also can't factor in the amount of people that have completely left the game due to going broke racing against the cheats or go fed up and left.  But just keep giving the cheats a free pass Goots and his loser crew!
