I just don't understand how anabolics are not seen by all as performance enhancers? They give the horse more strength, faster recovery, and better appetite. A race horse that is extremely strong and muscled is almost always going to perform better. Horses aren't that much different than men in the way anabolics act.

What legitimate therapuetic need could a horse that is about to race have?
