Default NYS banning steroids

http://news.bloodhorse.com/article/47536.htm


New York is joining other states in cracking down on steroid use in horse racing, state regulators announced Oct. 14.

“For the sake of the betting public, we want to do everything in our power to ensure that racing runs on a level playing field,” said John Sabini, chairman of the New York State Racing and Wagering Board, in a statement. “By imposing rigid new limits on four steroids and banning all others, New York is taking a leadership role in promoting integrity in racing. The message to owners and trainers should be clear: If you flaunt our steroid rules, you will be held accountable.”

The new rules go into effect Jan. 1.

To bad it really doesnt make a difference when the chemists are always one step ahead of the drug tests.

How about NYS allowing NYRA to STREAM their races?

That would be something.
