Title: The State Racing Commissions
Post by: MIKE CAMPBELL on April 25, 2025, 09:06:13 PM
Week after week when the list of positive tests are revealed, you have to wonder what in the hell is going on. Meth, oxycodone and testosterone are just a few of the drugs that have been detected lately. How are these trainers not being arrested? I can promise you are headed to jail if a cop pulls you over and finds this shit in your car. Shouldn't the states be required to contact law enforcement?

Giving it to a horse is quite a different story from a human taking it and somehow the horse ingests it through contamination.  Why aren’t the humans arrested in that case?

As far as I am concerned, if a horse comes up positive for some type of felony drug like meth, then before the trainer is notified, a search warrant should be issued to search that trainer's home, car, barn etc. This contamination bullshit makes me laugh.

You're not wrong and I agree with everything you just said.

Just race in Delaware. Nothing will happen to you there if caught with positives.

That's not true anymore, several guys got 6-month suspensions back in November for positive tests.

There should be NO testing ever , just gas em and go (That's right I said it ) Drugs can not be stopped , so why bother , the only trainers that win a drug outfits , so just stop testing . If every driver tried and every horse was loaded up , racing would be great again  tmbz1

I know that's normally what happens but for the 4 guys who were suspended, none of their horses have raced anywhere since.

Harness racing is a ces pool of people.   One day it will all be gone. For now it's who has the sharpest needle and longest hose.
