You are too kind.
It is worse than rubbish.
Basically this says that
the use of drugs that enhance performance
or just allow a horse to run, changes
the DNA in sex cells of
thoroughbreds.
The poster will win a Nobel prize
in Biology and reverse the last 60 years
of research in Biochemistry if this is proven.
Or was the poster just saying that it does not
allow breeders, etc... to cull horses that have obvious
defects that MAY be genetic because the drugs mask it?
