OC Register: Probe Scorches Cali Racing
Orange County Register investigative report seared California Sunday with some damning statistics... Not good...
THE PIECE: http://www.ocregister.com/ocregister...le_1353904.php CHART OF COMMON DRUGS/APPLICATIONS: http://www.ocregister.com/newsimages...10horse_gp.gif THREE EXAMPLES OF DQ'd 'WINNERS: http://www.ocregister.com/ocregister...le_1378840.php About the analysis: The Orange County Register reviewed California Horse Racing Board documents dating back to the 1990s. These included investigative reports, drug test analyses, ruling reports, memos, meeting minutes and hearing transcripts. Based on these records, we built a database that included every drug violation in California since 2000. Next, we cross-referenced the drug violation cases with Equibase, a commercial racing data site that includes the amount of money wagered on every race in the United States dating back to 1999. That's how we determined that more than $268 million has been wagered on tainted California races since 2000. To compare California to other states, we reviewed thousands of pages of documents from 21 other states. We were able to compare the number of tests conducted and the violation rates in each of these states. We also interviewed racing officials, owners, trainers, lab directors and other industry veterans from California and 15 other states and several national organizations.

The blood doping agent E.P.O. wasn't important to test for until just recently? LOL..wasn't this the stuff that the Harness trainer(and driver) got in major trouble for in Jersey? These 2 had quite a fine win % together(maybe 30-40%.) Those of us that live here know the top trainers are using stuff.Do you really think this lady called Susan Bump(who's horses most of us toss from consideration) is that bad with horses? She isn't.She just ain't cheating.

Wow.
That is all I can say about the report. Really an eye-opener. Everyone knows that this crap is going on, but to that extent is a bit shocking. And this is only the horses that have been caught. No telling how much has gone unnoticed. Wow.... ALostTexan
