It is so typical of the CHRB in response to the terrible job that they have done to place the blame on trainers and horses.
Here is what Richard Shapiro is really saying," We have done such a terrible job here at the CHRB in regulating the sport we have decided to abolish all trainers and horses and run computer simulations in their place. It is our finding that there are just too many physical problems with real horses, and with all those pesky medications that mask other pesky medications that those cheating trainers have cooked up in their home based chemistry labs, we just have lost control. Our informant (the guy who sold horses from france that never showed up here but charged the owners for training for 2 years and was given back his license in order to be a snitch for the CHRB) says that outside BALCO and Pvals house, there are no bigger drug dens in CA than Santa Anita and Hollywood Park. So we decided to just get rid of the trainers and all their problems and all the horses and their problems and just run some computer simulation that all the "fans" will bet on anyway. I mean one of the most suspect trainers called them names and they STILL showed up and played his horses so maybe he had a point. We still haven't come up with a penalty schedule for computer viruses but I doubt the fans will even notice this as they barely noticed how badly we were screwing up for years. We also will be saving the state a ton of money by not having any CHRB employees , and being that very few of them did anything anyway, I'm sure Arnold will be very pleased with us and maybe he can get me a job with his friends at the indian casino when my term expires."
