He makes it sound like ninjas snuck in, withdrew a blood sample, and slipped away in the night.

I like the horse, but was badly burned twice when I thought he had no shot. This article makes me mad thinking about those beatings I took.

The story would appear to involve more than the out of comp testing as discussed today on ATR. Ahead of that, Kentucky was refusing to license Vaccarezza and was suggesting he would need to take a trainer's test for it when he is already duly credentialed in FL and those rights are nearly always reciprocal. In fact, that posture was almost certainly a facade for Kentucky's identification of the restauranteur as an 'undesirable' given his well documented business associations years ago in New York.

Frank & Dino's is a really good restaurant. That said this seems a little fishy.
