    This is EXCATLY where SAM needs to stand up & be counted...........its not bicarb. Steroid use is abusive & cruel.

    Anabolic steroids are used by athletes, although their use is banned in most major sports. They are performance enhancing drugs that will build up bigger muscles and give longer endurance. Anabolic steroids are illegal in horse racing, although some trainers still use these drugs on horses to make them run faster and give them more endurance on the track. These drugs can be discovered when drug testing the animal at which time they will usually be disqualified from a race. However, since not all horse racing is tightly regulated, especially in the case of harness racing, these drugs are often used before a race in an effort to get a horse to speed up. Four steroids that are used for horses that are banned are stanozolol, boldenone, nandrolene and testosterone.

    Boldenone.

    The bottom line here is tha once again the only publicity this industry is going to get is going to be bad. But the only view that will be given in this forum is of the numerous people who have been jealous of Lukes success trying to tell everyone how big of a cheat he is.
    One of the most IDIOTIC comments ever written on any Forum. People do not begrudge anyone's success if attained from hard work, honesty and completely by the rules.
    This news, which i knew about nealry 2 weeks ago has CONFIRMED everyone's suspicions about L Mc. The Golden Child, The Harmess Racing Poster Boy. The performances of his sunsequent runners hold testament to his guilt in CHEATING Owners, Drivers and Trainers out of what probably was rightly theirs. Let's see how many bandwagon jumpers now disembark this sinking ship. No doubt, Luke McCarthy can train a horse but not improve them laps to the detriment of previous trainers, NO WAY. This may only be one positive at the moment and wether they re test other swabs is problematical. The other near certainty is that L Mc will have a plausible excuse and this will assist in lessening the penalty that he gets. One problem he will have is seeing where he is going as he will be walking around with his head hung in shame.
    For the L Mc diehards, and let us call you Cleopatras as you will all be in denial, look at this objectively if you can but you probably won't be able to bear that for the sake of losing sleep ove r the fact that your God has been found out.

    [QUOTE=Stonie;16966]Well said Pete.
    He will still be seen as a "great trainer" as commonly referred to on here.

    Not by the people who have been trying to make an HONEST living he won't

    Well Im happy you made money from his cheating....
    Others with TCo2 positives on here got smashed.
    Steroids are much much worse and would probably explain a handful of his horses becoming very ill over the last few months of his domination by cheating.
    Quite often Luke McCarthy trained horses are rough in the score-up as I would be if filled with a unfamiliar substance.

    Michael, many have been sitting on this news for a while now but unable to divulge and details until official confirmation was made. It's simply a case of the floodgates opening up full throttle. No one is gaing delight in the fact that Harness racing has been further been dragged through the slime but that the supposed Wonder Boy that most knew has been cheating, has been caught out. To turn Cinderella into Ben Johnson just by traditional training methods is hard for anyone to swallow. The Topic is about L McCarthy's positive, let the people have their say.

    The penalty should be severe being a steroid but what worries me is, are the powers to be going to allow that to happen? due to his exposure etc or do they really do the right thing and make it known in the industry that IT WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm , he will suffer somewhat as publicly everyone knows that it is not as if his horse was in a paddock and had a hi bi carb scenario/exscuse. he no doubt will have top legal representation.

    No shit, I could tell you how much the stuff he's been using costs, that will explain why hobbie trainers horses don't go as good. (only from what I've been told) I really dont care if he got life. I'm not some diehard fan of lukes. He makes the races boring when everyone else is too scared to take him on and he gets gifted the race. All I'm trying to say is that it's not good news for the industry, more bad publicity. But I guess most of you have been waiting for this day when you can publicly slam Luke so go for it. I really couldn't care.
