If the winner of the Kentucky Derby, one of the largest horse races in the USA, should be discovered to have been doped, then what hope is there for the horse racing industry as a whole. This month, one of the most well-known trainers admitted to doping many horses. He's now looking at five years in prison. But consider that one of his horses died of a heart attack. This same horse had won millions of dollars, thereby cheating the punters and the other horses who raced clean.

So you want to claim a racehorse? Outside of US horse racing, very few people know what claiming races are, let alone how to claim a racehorse. Yet claiming races make up the vast majority of all horse racing in the US.
