I understand you feel powerless about changing the status quo, and that is fine.

But please do not criticize others who lend their voices, their money, and/or their actions toward making this sport better, since cheating and drugs has become a reputation burden for many who depend on this industry, who care very much about the welfare of the horses and about the survival of the sport.

Your implication that talking about it is "complaining" is rather misplaced, esp. when it comes up in a topic for discussion.

You are correct. I have no knowledge of of what others do behind the scenes for racing. I only have knowledge of what you have posted which up until now has been just complaining. If you are taking action to solve the problem I back you 100%. If so, you might want to share what actions you are taking.
