Right. . . It's just interesting to hear she was tranqued up considering how poorly she ran that day. I realize that it can be performance enhancing in small doses, but obviously detrimental in larger doses.

I understand that K-Mac's suspension got a lot of play in some international racing publications because of his training for Sheikh Mo. Now one of the other trainers he uses has a positive for a drug that would just be stupid to give a horse.

I'm just saying it, but let's see if Eoin Harty has a positive in the coming days.

Like I said - it's not always detrimental to a horse's performance in smaller doses.

Almost sounds "vindictive" Two formerly "clean" trainers cited.
And a tranquilizer sounds stupid from a trainer like Albertraini.
Must be KY is trying to make an example before their "new" drug testing protocols begin

KY reduced the horses that will be drug tested in 2010. Costs too much to test under the current system they have...whatever that is

The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission has approved new procedures that regulators say will streamline and reduce the cost of equine drug testing in the state by as much as 25-30%.

Under the new procedures, approved unanimously by the commission Dec. 1, at least two horses out of every race will be taken to the test barn where samples, including blood and urine, will be collected under the direction of the official veterinarian. Based on the discretion of stewards, there may be more than two horses selected for blood and urine samples to be drawn, but a sample will always be taken of the winner and any other horse(s) as designated by the stewards.

Once the samples are taken, not all of them will be tested for prohibited substances. From the samples taken, some will be designated with either a gold or red label, again, at the discretion of stewards. The samples with gold labels will be tested 100% of the time while 50% of the red-label samples will be tested. Once the samples are logged into the Lab Information Management System, the computer would be programmed to randomly select the red-labeled samples for testing.
For listed and graded stakes and any race with a purse of $100,000 or more, the top three finishers would have samples drawn and tested under the new system.

Presently, samples are taken and tested from two participants in every race--the winner and an additional horse, and the top four finishers in graded stakes.
