The current situation with the use of "therapeutic drugs" has been well and truly brought to the surface by the "Smoken Up ID 2011 drama" I don't know where everyone sits on this issue and believe it would be a good thing for people to air their opinions and ideas about.

I certainly don't have a "silver bullet" answer to the improving their controlled use but I do think any policy should be designed around each particular drug rather than any blanket, one size fits all method that will in some cases, make life harder for the connections of the horse than necessary.

Certainly a review of current threshold levels and withholding periods, as has already been suggested, would assist in avoiding small issues escalating.

What are your thoughts?

Anyway, Cessnock trials won't run themselves, so Ive gotta head off over there and do my bit.

Cheers,

Dan
