Forte Hopeful med overage reporting
Forte's therapeutic med overage after the Hopeful was like a message in a bottle floating around the ocean. Eventually it would reach a shore and be called publicly by the NY Gaming Commission after the legal wranglings ended.
Holding the speculative reporting (using anonymous Gaming Commission sources) until after Derby reveals 2 things, one worthwhile and one thoroughly pathetic and insidious.
First is the legitimate angst and annoyance over procedural elements of regulation, something which HISA/HIWU has potential to smooth out and expedite.
Second is that the reporting outlet held the 8 month old topic hoping Forte would perform well or win Derby thereby offering the big gotcha moment to taint his performance and create an absolute conflagration for the industry.
