    Glenn Douglas and Ellen Tormey charged

    http://www.harness.org.au/media-room...?news_id=40504

    This is a Biggie

    The horse involved The Boss Man was a late scratching from a heat of the Trotters Interdominion

    If found guilty of these charges I never want to hear/read again what a good bloke he is, a mentor etc etc

    This was not even his horse and the illegal action is alleged to have occurred on one of our Big nights

    If such outlandish behavior is proven one would have serious trouble believing none of the winners of this former premiership trainer were ever milkshaked


    Glenn Douglas was involved in one of the most unsavory things to have occurred at a harness track (and afterwards) for which he got a mere 6mths

    He has been 'flying' lately and now this comes to light!

    I hope this has not been a case of making hay while the sun shines

    Stewards advise that in accordance with the ‘HRV Elevated TC02 Levels Policy’ Kotare Mahdi NZ will be subject to the provisions of the policy for its engagement in Race 5 at the Tabcorp Park Melton race meeting on 8 June 2019.

    The pair are teaming up again in the $25k North Region final at Mildura
    What chance a pre-swab?

    Another 2 Metro winners tonight for GD
    We need to expedite these charges as the stable is building some huge holiday spending money

    Another Douglas horse subject to the HRV Elevated TC02 Levels Policy

    http://www.harness.org.au/media-room...?news_id=40878

    The policy states:

    Results of blood samples consistently reveal elevated TCO2 levels, however they fall
    just below the threshold and therefore no action can be taken. This indicates that
    trainers are administering alkalinising agents on raceday

    As a result the HRV Stewards believe that by introducing the below requirement it
    will act as a deterrent to those trainers who are administering alkalinising agents on
    raceday
    .


    A link to the pdf this is a quote from, can be found in the earlier link I provided

    So, like Kotare Mahdi, the stewards suspect his other horse The Cobblers Piece

    It would seem that we really do need to expedite the charges against him

    A poster suggested to me, what with HRV doing virtually no PRS and yet they caught Tabone and 2 Douglas horses now have to report early/stay late,
    the question is: Are they targetting the right people or missing many others?

    Ellen again

    It is alleged that the horse ‘Fremarksgonzo’ was presented to race at Mildura on 13 April 2019 by Ms Tormey, whilst not free of alkalinising agents

    Glenn Douglas wins the first at Melton and Rob's interview begins with
    "It gives me great pleasure to catch up with Glenn Douglas ..."

    I know you are just doing your job Rob but It does not give many of us pleasure because of what he has been found guilty of in the past and what he is charged with right now and yet he is allowed to win race after race

    Douglas is just one but we have to stop this acceptance of wrongdoers
    HRV - it is no good pretending they are good blokes for the media facade we are putting up - just clean it up quickly and save us all the embarrassment

    Integrity matters, they say. Pity HRV seems to just "say" rather than do! Every day this rubbish is allowed to continue is just another nail in the coffin.
