I strongly disagree that there were more cheaters 20 years ago. I think there are way more cheaters now. There are way more drugs being used today both legal and illegal. As Jack Van Berg said, there used to be 4 vets on the whole backside at Santa Anita 30 years ago. Now you have over 30 vets.
Vet work is such a huge part of the game today. How could anyone possibly say that things were just as bad 30 years ago. That is absurd.
Things are 100x worse today. Horseracing today has become a battle of vets and chemists. That is half the game today. It never used to be like this in the past.
