I don't have a problem with him trying to force a urine test to see if the other compounds in Otomax were present in the horse's urine. If they are, the horse is almost certainly going to get DQ'd anyway, but I think it would help his reputation and possibly lower his suspension relative to a presumed injection. The reputation of the horse would probably be salvaged better also. I'm certain I read that kind of testing was already being done, but apparently not. If it comes back positive for the other Otomax compounds he'd probably be better off just owning up to "reckless" management of his barn and accepting the punishment for that. That's got to be better than the assumption that he injected the horse and gambled it would be out of his system by Derby day.
