If a trainer works a horse and the clocker misses the work, the work is not reported. Period. The trainer needs to work the horse again on another day.
The environment is unlike any other in the mid-atlantic region. I don't believe any jurisdiction runs a tighter ship.
Are these measures published? Probably not. Why would they be?

Why shouldn't this be published? Every where and every way possible? Announcers stating these changes during simulcast, advertise it in the DRF. Tout it any where possible. Either they do not care about their reputation, or the reputation of horse racing in general, or these changes will not stand up to scrutiny. Until they work at changing their reputation, it will stay the same. And that is that they do not care about what people think of their track. That they mistreat and abuse the horses. Cheating with drugs is common and accepted. And the reason for this is because all they want is the money from the casinos.
