Ohio needs to test for hematocrit levels. Why are we not? Over 50 and your scratched. If its over 50 ur horse is sick, dehydrated, or epo'ed. Shouldn't be racing. Test for Hematocrit, tco2, amphetamine and opiates. Thats it who cares about bute lasix cortisone and antibiotics
-
I don't disagree. The problem seems to be that the dopers have the tests beat. The ones that get caught are rarely by testing. Investigative work is what is needed...in my opinion.
-
The judges have failed Ohio racing over and over. They need to special horses every night. Put the cheats in detention. Nobody's going to do anything about Burke or Morgan that's going to have to be on DEA and national level task force.Private investigate and watch these 2 crack and crumble.
-
I dont think you should be fined just scratched until your horses hematocrit is within range.
-
I'd be at the leading barns twice a week for as long as it took to get the data necessary to boot their asses out of the game. And I'd get the Feds involved as well once the drop off in performance occurs.
-
It's not that easy the percentags of red blood cells vary from exercise and horse to horse. Inside sources tells me they are working on it to figure it out an average before and after exercise.
-
I didnt say blood count i said hematocrit level simple test before the race. Test for hematocrit over 50 and the sport will change over night.
-
The hematocrit test is a simple blood test that measures the percentage of red blood cells in your blood. While the test itself is brief, it typically takes only a few minutes to draw blood and analyze it in a lab. The test is part of a complete blood count (CBC) and is not lengthy.
-
It's already been figured out if the horse is a madocrit isn't within the normal range of 32 to 50 over or under they are not fit to race problem solved you eliminate EPO for performance enhancing and you also let those know with low hematocrit they need to do some work to get their horses healthy
-
This sounds so simple. Why are they not catching the many, many EPO users?

Prolly cause they are few and far between.

How do explain all those arrested? They did not test positive. That would mean the testing is useless in most cases.

You just said they're not catching that many. Now you say ALL those arrested?? Make up your mind! ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3 ngc3

I really need to s-p-e-l-l it out for you? Those arrested were not caught by testing.

I think you need to spell it out for you. You seem quite mixed up.

You are arguing with someone who thinks the game is clean, safe your effort and ignore idiots like Pacer0

ANYONE WHO THINKS THIS SPORT IS CLEAN NEEDS A PALLET OF SMELLING SALTS.

The whole sport should be rebelling. No one is that far above everyone else.
I asked before if anyone knows the successful training tree to come from the Burkes?

I never said its totally clean. But its the same with politics, business, baseball, football, track, cycling, soccer and other sports . The cheaters get weeded out......

They need to forget trying to keep up with the drugs. Just use mass spectrometry pre race if something odd shows up your scratched. No fine or suspension just scratches sooner or later the dirtbag owners will leave

This is brilliant, in theory. Not sure it's doable. I'm certain people would get ahead of it at some point; cheaters always do. Plus, the sport likely collapses entirely if this was enforced.
-
Testing is a joke and has been for a long period. Pena didn't come up positive. All the arrested didn't have positive tests. You have to cheat to compete. How sad is that?
-
Butte lasix cortisone antibiotics none of that is cheating. Hematocrit over 55 definitely cheating. Somebody should post
-
I meant to say somebody should post louprints CBC. The one taken before the jug. Then we will all know. I know somebody out there has seen it.
