1- jerry...please add the 5 points

2-in discussing the present system of penalizing "positives", the only person that gets hurt when a horse comes up "positive" is the owner...he loses the purse...the trainer gets days; his reputation is sullied (ha!) and he goes on vacation, while his assistant trainer conducts business as usual...and for many of the owners who deal with the "super-trainers"...they've made so much money already that this is the price of doing business with these guys...i have a different idea....when a trainer has a positive, ALL HORSES owned by that owner are ineligible to race for 15 days...2nd offense-30 days, etc... how many owners are gonna want to deal with that trainer when all he's gonna do is write checks, without any cash inflow?...the answer is NONE...that trainer will soon be out of business...it's amazing to me that when you are caught driving drunk your license is immediately suspended, but in racing, trainers can have 10 positives a year and continue to train...do you think my idea has any merit?...your opinion is valued
