Apparently this includes all other horses owned by them in Servis’ barn. Picking Bramlage was a good move, known to be straight shooter when it comes to facts. Probably the first smart move on their part in sometime.

It’s interesting to read that Mark Casse was thinking about retiring until the indictments were issued, which gave him hope for a more level playing field.

Well, there’s an interesting article about Mark Casse and his thoughts on this subject, but apparently trying to post a link causes my post to be unapproved. 
I can see your post with the link. :yes:

Bramlage report on Maximum Security https://www.paulickreport.com/horse-care-category/bramlage-nothing-seriously-wrong-with-maximum-security-but-a-break-would-be-good/
Maximum Security has no serious issues…
He needs to detox though. Guess this is a good time for a layup.

Well, until those blood test some back, we really do not know for sure what he has in his system. And, obviously, I believe that he is juiced. Regardless, he needs time, and that’s just what he’ll get.

Must be something about the Paulick report that triggers it. I posted a link last night to an article there about Bramlage and Maximum Security and it was unapproved and still hasn’t shown up.

What they were giving doesn’t test, if I understand correctly.

How long does it take for those drugs to get out of a horse’s body?
In the article, they mention having tested the horses under the auspices of each jurisdiction. I agree that I recall reading that the stuff doesn’t test, but if it doesn’t test, how do you actually prove that the horses received THAT stuff (I realize that there are witnesses, but do you know for sure what was in the vial?)
I guess it’s kind of like this- someone watches you drink out of a bottle of vodka. They tell the cop you were drinking vodka. They test you, and you weren’t drinking vodka, or, at least it didn’t show up…so , now what happens?
I thought the FBI has the trainers on the phone admitting MS was “juiced”.
I believe that is what has been stated, too. I am just saying if you cannot test for it- as Skydy indicates, how the hell are you going to know what that horse has in their system, or when they are well and truly clear?
Apparently you can test for Peptides, and other countries do. From my understanding, being naturally in the system it is difficult to set parameters. This article mentions the issue https://www.theage.com.au/sport/racing/rv-to-reach-out-to-us-colleagues-in-wake-of-doping-scandal-20200310-p548iu.html
This is just so awful. These people had no idea what effect the stuff they were using would have on these horses except that it killed some of them, and they didn’t care about that.
Now every death surrounding those connections is suspect. Bobby Abu Dhabi and his markedly enlarged spleen comes to mind. https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/229820/necropsy-shows-bobby-abu-dhabi-died-of-spinal-injury
