They do. NYRA always tests the first three finishers of each race, blood and urine, split samples sent off to labs. They also have the authority to test any random horse in the race or all the horses if they feel like it.. but they ALWAYS test the first three.
Thats why you see grooms or exercise riders whistling at the horses in the barn after they have a breeze, because it teaches the horse to urinate when it hears the whistle.. so its easier on them in the test barn.
