    Interesting stuff Toni
    With the chances of a false positive being 2.5 Million to 1 at the level of 120 ug/L
    I think 120 would be a high enough level

    This is from the Harnesslink web site.

    I haven't read the entire Supreme Court finding and some will most likely go over my head but I don't understand how anyone would have thought challenging HRNSW's right to implement local rules would fly.
    Some of the research presented surrounding cobalt is great reading. Might just go and check that list of readings HRNSW published!

    Thanks Brendan
    Beautide had a 43 reading
    A reading of 50 is said to only have 1 chance in 118 of being a false positive

    One question I have is , " are horses tested upon their arrival into the retention barn ?" & if not they bloody well should be.
    maybe you can answer that Adam..................thanks.
    Trish all horses from foals up can be tested at any time by the powers that be if needed or required its under the rules about out of competition testing.
    Have whoever you want on but don't ever have yourself on

    Thanks Greg, didn't realise that from foals. Would it be against the rules to have a cobalt level over 200 in out of race testing, I don't know if it is, trainers used to be able to use steroids as long as it didn't show up on race day.
    I Noticed we didn't get an answer out of Adam regarding the swabbing upon arrival to the retention barn, maybe he can fill us in when he gets a chance.

    Somewhat related, I wondered if it was an offence to even have cobalt on your premises.
    The reason I ask is that some horses tested well above the normal <5 reading and although less than 200, you would think they were receiving more than cobalt enriched feed.
