For being away as long as he was I think he is doing pretty good give him another year or so to get some power owners behind him

This guy was the foremost in winning by juicing in the USA before he took an extended sabbatical. There is no way he would return to the scene of the crime and think he would dominate once again, riding a white horse. I believe the sophistication of pre race enhancements is so common to all, he has no edge.

Pellingdidn't "GET OUT" before the hammer fell.  The hammer fell in a private agreement because if they nailed him it would pull about 3 horses out of the hall of fame and decrease the stud value of the whole industry.    He agreed to go away for ten years because the scandal was piling up too high EPO EPO EPO etc etc etc .  This explains why he returned to the USA in exactly 10 years almost to the day.   I suspect the Takter "retirement" runs along the same lines.  Imagine the humiliation if that actually came out.   Takter will be back in exactly 5 to 10 years.  Pierce will come back too

All these so called great trainers can be summed up in three letters E  P  O. 
It’s that simple.  They were the first to use it and it made them look great.

CARNIVAL PEOPLE IS 100% CORRECT ON PELLING AND JIMMY. PIERCE WILL NEVER COME BACK. IF A HORSE IN TIGHT QUARTERS HITS HIM

HE'S DONE. ALSO PELLING LOST A MAJORITY OF HIS MONEY INVESTING IN GOLF COURSES IN JAPAN. THE ONLY SMART ONE IS NIFTY
