And with the purses the way they are at Penn .. it's that much harder to kid gloves a cripple.

I guess he could always look to claim slower and sounder horses ... and win a whole lot fewer races and lose a tremendous pile of more money.

Or he could instruct his trainers to handle his army of many cripples like they're Ghostzapper .. and nurse them through four races a year campaigns .. while the fewer starts result in him losing more money and getting a lot less action.
DrugS Gill is killing horses with his ultra aggressive vetting.. I assume vets are behind the horses coming back to form.. I know all Gill horses run on IV DMSO (human Grade), I dont know how much of a real PED but apparently it works pretty good? He is killing way too many in the name of business and jocks now think they dont want him around..
