Signed MANY like this over the years and not much has changed. Many trainers in the BC 2014 have multiple Drug Violations and STILL TRAINING. They make Lance Armstrong look like a baby sucking on a Lollipop.

Surely it's just common sense. A trainer does not work alone, the whole barn needs to be sanctioned, with penalties enforced and consistent nationwide.

If we don't protect the sport, it won't survive. If we don't protect the horses, shame on us.

Better late than never. Whatever it takes to make things better for the horse is what we need to do.

The game will not be cleaned up until trainers realize they face swift (can't be delayed by appeals) and severe penalties.

Jockey rides, and split entries are killing the game. Why should Owners, Trainers and the industry stakeholder have anything to do with the transparency we so badly need?

I support this effort to improve animal welfare and improved governance of race day medication.
