I am not defending what he did..Just suggesting that I would let him train my horse if I had stock that was worthy of his talent. I wouldn't allow him to juice my horse! I would just tell him no juice.. People make mistakes and come to tink of it I think nerve blocks are given to horses in non threaten locations all the time to prevent them from experiencing discomfort in a non strategic area.. Let's say a horse broke his tail what is the harm in deadening the nerves and running him?
