Not sure why my bet on Masochistic in the 2016 BC Sprint (and I do think I made one, but can't say for sure - my recollection is that I thought he appeared the most likely winner on TG but was a short price, I just can't remember whether I pushed the button or not) has any bearing on anything.
In general, I think you make some good points regarding testing, the lack of information, and so on. (For what it's worth, with regard to Masochistic, I would say the far better example is the rather large betting coup perpetrated at CD on Derby Day in 2014.)
But, lately it seems that you have a particular bee in your bonnet regarding BB (nyuk!), although to my recollection you haven't cited any evidence other than what you feel is his suspiciously good record in N.Y., and his suspiciously bad record in the B.C. Those facts fit with your theory, but they fit with a thousand others also. Absent more, you don't have it, and I just think the assertion police should round you up at some point.
