That depends entirely on whose checkbook is going to be hurting. I doubt Todd Plechter was really sturggling to get by when his horse came up positive...

I maintain there should be a "Strike 3" rule. You get caught once, there's a fine. Twice, a bigger fine, a suspension, Three time, and you're out: Lifetime ban.

Of course, I'm not at all a tolerant person...
