1-- Richie, that was a great line.
2-- Having said that, it is very unlikely that particular Pletcher transgression was anything more than a screw-up-- if he was using something like that to affect outcomes, there would be more positives. Much more likely it was what he said, local anesthetic used for an operation.
3-- I can't believe I am going to defend a guy who has savaged me in public, but I have to say that Barry is one of the very few that has used his high profile to try and get something done about drugs-- notably in an opinion piece in Bloodhorse. He ain't the enemy, at least when it comes to drugs.
