Was I cheating?

I have been going through the thoroughbred rulings database this morning. I have found some interesting information.
1. Some trainers are horrible with paperwork.
2. Some trainers are not punctual.
3. Some are assholes.
When it came to drug violations I found:
1. Some do not get violations.
2. Some get a occasional violation (mostly L)
Now for the ones that got my attention:
1. The trainer gets license, wins with a violation, and never heard from again.
2. Chronic violations that change. Different medications, usually a steroid, and positives in groups.
As for you, I would say, by reading what you post, there is no way you cheated. You hit a period where you just happen have horses get healthy, and a little racing luck in your favor.
