Shock waving a horse can be therapeutic, although I would assume time in mant situations, would serve just as well, but time is expensive. People are funny they hear some nickel rag claimer is shock waved to run better etc. and they are outraged, Nyquist not so much, he had to make it back faster to run in important stakes and that seems OK with many. I dont distinguish the two but thats just me

Never said they were putting pressure on them to cheat but we can both agree they certainly are not putting pressure on them NOT TO. I am saying there are owners using trainers we all know are suspect and they are in lifetime don't ask don't tell mode. They control the purse strings and that is the only pressure I believe that has the power to change. Of course this is my opinion..
