Owners, trainers etc who bet often have very different opinions on how to run the sport than those people bet only. When I see those gambling horse people as group start fighting for things that non horsepeople bettors consider important, in the case drugs, then I will know we have made progress. The problem is that the gambling horse people still get most of their income from the horse end of the sport and will come down on the horse people side of any disagreement with the non horse people bettors. Case in point, I don't know of any non horse person bettor who doesn't want to get rid of Lasix, yet even betting horse people want to keep it. When you show me that you actually agree with non horse person bettors on something that they want, but horse people don't, then I will believe that you are not nothing more than a shill for the horse people. Why would any bettor who is not also a horse person want a horse running on any drugs?
