Santa Anita

Yeah, they just invented a bunch of new drugs this year and gave them out to everyone and they\'re the cause....that\'s much more plausible than the much above normal, constant rainfall and the track being repeatedly sealed.

List read it briefly but certainly sounds like there is finger pointing and a blame game going on.

Vet Records after a Claim?
Track coercing to run for bigger Fields?

They are running a lot of cheaper races at GP it seems to me. Getting bigger fields and are not having the breakdowns.

Every business should be requires to evaluate its product. Improving its quality control and public use.
