In the meantime, here’s a quote from Gilbert Garcia Herrera, who retired from racing a few years ago:
I'd like to see everybody treated equally. Some people get positive tests and it gets washed under the rug. A lot of people get high tests and they just forget about it. That disappoints me. Everyone should get the same penalty all the time. Some people get an appeal and work under the appeal for years. That's stupid. Some people make mistakes and some people do things on purpose, and I'm guilty too, just pay the price and move on. You know if you give something to a horse and the rules. You know that potentially you can get caught. Be a big man and pay the price . . . I had a couple of positives for Robaxin [April & May 2014]. I had two in one year. They gave me 15 days and I took it. I went to Boston for a week and took a little vacation since I couldn't be at the farm.
