Yes and no. Worse testing, but far worse drugs too. Arsenic tonics, for example. Ok. Not sure how that's supposed to help. EPO, cobalt, we know how that truly works to make a horse keep right on rolling.

There are cheats today as well as those who don't cheat. Same as in years past. When we KNOW a trainer is a cheat like we do with Baffert, then it's more than reasonable to be suspect of all his horses' performances.
