some of us would not be stupid enough to be the person in that van

This Grandstand Handicapper is really something.
He doesnt like "the way" someone else advocates for horses. Oh boo hoo. What a tribulation. The suffering he must endure at the hands of petrelli.
The obvious resolution is to then do it yourself if you dont like "the way" others are doing it.
That won't ever happen. This website is filled with bad actors posting behind a veil

People like him old timers that do not want the truth dealt with are the problem in the game,    i just believe the guy is 100 percent stupid but hes educated but never has or brings up a point to how to fix this game and for a while it did bother me the way mike went about things but i was very wrong because he cares and i never took that into consideration .   but a good post pocket as i was thinking the same as you,      i had many meetings over the last 40 years and never got far as the breeders are a big part of this game and just want fast times and could care less how those fast times are not real,     i  was at one point a huge GURAL fan but he is a breeder and also wants the fast times that make todays racing a hard thing to watch because it is a fact that most drug trainers have speed horses and if the old LOU PENA was racing today he would have the highest win rate ever but he raced when the track had movement and GEORGE B over drove many of his machines but today that wins most races.
