I 100% agree with you on Ellis. He should be hammered. But we all know he won't be. He'll keep running his horses two or three times a year so he can drug them up in between races. I smelled a rat when he skipped the prep race and commented on it. Something was fishy then, I just knew it.

And that's why the outrage should be focused on Ellis and not the CHRB or the bettors or whatever.
It's a simple riskversus reward formula. He rolled on the dice on the reward of the horse winning and him making $100K+ versus two weeks vacation and $10K fine.
If he's forced to loss real money and real consequences after this that's the only way to prevent future issues.
Everyone on the forum should be emailing TVG demanding they end their relationship with him.
If you want to stop this stuff you start by doing that.
