Jory had lab tests done on the horses and the results came back positive, I forget for what tranquilizer. Tests were shown to the press and all. But since the tests weren't ordered by the officials of the track in Dubai, no official action could be taken, or so the track authorities said. I doubt they cared to do much, since the winner was the Sheikh's horse and an investigation would have cast doubt on his accomplishment.
