IEA lists \"Son of Leading trainer\" as one of their trainers and he reportedly is using a vet other than Hunt Maybe this outfit required all horses to be vetted by Dr. Hunt. If the Federal investigation is going to charge doping they\'ll have to indict trainers and vets. To my knowledge only Martin has been indicted so far. I hope they have a bigger net. They\'ve implied they do, but you\'d think they\'d cast it simultaneously.

  \"He cites an appearance in the winner\'s circle following a victory at Aqueduct by A One Rocket on Jan. 17, 2004, as a personal highlight since beginning his association with IEAH.\"

luv your drool sense of humor obarra....theres no problem being an insider with knowledge...just dont be an insider influencing with that knowledge...lol

seriously, fed charges scare the hell outta me but they need some convictions here. I really anticipate that putting the safeguards in place makes huge sentences for doing what trainers have always done unjust. Frankel deserves 25 years as much as Martin. These guys are trying to earn a living, winning. If they tie Martin to betting in the syndicate go hard on him. But if hes gutting it out...comeon I know this is all premature, but i\'m so exited, I\'ve kinda had a feeling the juice issue was gonna be on the table..im actually celebrating tonight and i did not win.

Mall, I agree about the caution on the names.  I think the light will shine in all the right corners soon enough.  My guess about the tax losses is that those making the bets for a large group of others, were keeping the rebates to themselves(based on one of the many articles I read today).  Thus, those who actually supplied the betting capital may have shown more losses?  It seems, given the apparent free hand some of these bettors had through off-shore anonymous accounts, that there would have been any number of creative ways to make it work.  
In any event, it\'s a banner day for elevating the issue of performance enhancers and rebate shops in this game.  After reading so many stories in so many publications, it all has the feel of a boil that\'s been lanced and will be oozing for some time.   raz
