Interesting from those 2 Wayne but I hate the opening position of journo Matt Stewart - it reminded me a little of Robbo's pathetic bias/covering for Hird in the Essendon scandalOriginally Posted by arlington

This is another reason why the 200 is too generous - here we have the Herald Sun saying 'stewards say the cobalt positives in those cases were not dramatically above the permitted levels' when referring to the gallops three. How about they state how many times above normal levels they are

Pretty sensational opening statement in that article. Then read on...backed up with what? 'Suspected' again and the same old stuff the Age did. Cut and paste. 'Journalism'?
In other article a great idea!! Take the thoroughbreds with high cobalt readings. Sure there's room at Werribee quarantine this time of year. Give them what trainers said they were given feed, supplements, etc for couple weeks. Also give them same exercise. Then pick a 'raceday'. Don't give them anything that day coz that's illegal. Then bowl them round track under race conditions. A trial will do. Then swab them and test results.
If no high cobalt readings, how come there were before?
The Cobalt fairy?
How come only 5 of those trainers horses had high readings? Out of 100's only 5?
Wade Birch integrity officer of the racing has confirmed 3 harness and 2 gallop trainers horses have returned positives but still no names as they are sending the samples to Sydney for analiysis.Surely this is doing more harm than good to both codes Seems like they are looking for a reason not to charge the trainers.In my mind a positive is a positive and they should be named to protect the reputation of innocent trainers who do the right thing.
I also point out he is the same person who was notified in October last year re the greyhound situation and did nothing.This info is available on www.letsgohorseracing.com.au website
Honestly speaking, Hell there's a lot of people in the racing industry that impersonate Eunuchs, About time these people got off there big fat pay cheques and done something about this disgrace, Rant Over!!
