Seaching for info on naturally occurring high levels of testosterone, I thought I'd look at Botero's case again.
There's one name that sticks out here-
Botero cleared The suspicions that cyclist Santiago Botero was on the juice have been allayed by Spanish Doctor, Eufemiano Fuentes, who demonstrated that the rider's high testosterone levels are natural in origin (horses are natural, aren't they?). The Colombian Cycling Federation accepted Dr. Fuentes' explanation. Botero had been placed in a compromising position when four tests showed his testosterone level to be more than 6 nanograms, the maximum level for normal people. The levels detected in Botero were: 17, 28, 29 and 27(!) Due to these results, his team, Kelme-Carta Blanca, left him out of la Vuelta a España as a preventive measure and his case went to the Colombian Federation.

And Cunego is allowed to race with > 50% hematocrit. That might help Landis if he fails another test.
