The connections can argue what they did in California is fine since it was under California laws and Kentucky has no right to know what they did. What if they inject a horse with a substance in Cali, then fly the horse to Keeneland and race the next day, is that legal?
Seems like a massive can of worms unless all the tracks operate under one body with one set of reporting criteria and one set of rules.

I drive my car in California and then sometimes will drive to Arizona. They have different speed limits that I must abide by. Should I just ignore the AZ laws because I am from California?
Horse owners/trainers should know the racing rules in every jurisdiction where they want to run there horses. Either a horse qualifies to run in a state or it doesn't. The rules of one state should not override the rules of another state.
