What a mockery of the game to simply have his wife take over as trainer. Unless, what, we're supposed to think she heads out and returns home for 100 days and says "can't share anything with you about the horses, honey - remember you're suspended". What a sick joke.

It took them over 4 years to decide to transfer the horses to his wife?

CHRB at least has gotten a start.
...
“A trainer suspended for over 30 days for a medication violation will no longer be able to transfer horses to anyone who has been employed by the trainer in the previous year,” read the CHRB document. “Transfers to family members already are prohibited.”

They fined him only $4,800.00? 
That's like fining me $22.63

10-12 offenses, one fine/suspension.
Curious 'compensation'.
Wonder how that would have figured out in NY...

My take on this stuff is always the same. Tracks have the power to deny him stalls and deny him the entry box. Owners can fire him.
Until those groups do SOMETHING I can't really be outraged by the GOVERNMENT taking MINOR action.
Tampa refused stalls to Jane Cibelli. Delaware refused stalls to Juan Vasquez.
So two questions...
1. Why those two and not Ness?
2. What are the odds of either place taking action? 100-1

Ness, the Bennentt boys, Proctor, Pletcher. I don't want to see any of those guys with an entry at Tampa Bay.
But Ness is the undeniable leader when it comes to making the race at Tampa unplayable.

I don't understand how he keeps getting a pass. Only thing I can come up with is he has so many horses and tracks are so desperate for entries they just look the other way.

He must be a 'class act'.
