I know you think Rick was really on top of his game. But as you point out, the information that has been released was controlled by him.
If you go back and read every single detail of all the Baffert excuses, incidents, mishaps, groom's pee, etc, Rick has been covering up for Baffert for years. Even if there was some serious blood doping agents, you would never know b/c Rick was in Bob's corner of the ring the whole time no matter what he said. His actions showed he had his back no matter how he had to later Justify it.
As it is, why are we just learning of this now? Transparency one of the game's biggest problems. And the so-called leaders continue to show themselves covering up for people they shouldn't be covering up for year after year.
Snow White. That's rich.
I've always found it ironic a guy who nearly died but survived a heart attack has numerous horses that he cares for fall over dead from heart attacks including a Derby winner. No one else has a history of heart attacks in their trainees the way the greatest trainer ever has. . . hmmm, I wonder why? It isn't because of Mickey Mouse drugs and Snow White character.
