I just pulled out a packet of Uncle Tobys oats that were way up the back of the cupboard, had to get a torch to find them!...........they are as high as hell!.........But, I tell you what, I'm definitely eating them for breakfast!

I know you made that comment trying to be funny and did not mean it seriously but here is some actual facts for you.
About 3 years ago 4 different trainers in NSW all got high morphine readings in post race urine samples in the past that type of thing had historically been caused in all codes by contamination of oats.
The problem was none of these trainers actually fed oats.
When it was investigated, it was however found they all fed a multi grain manufactured feed... closer examination found each of the trainers still had bags of this feed at their stables from the same batch number and low and behold each bag was contaminated by poppy seeds leading to the elevated morphine findings.
So maybe not the same feed bins but it could well be the same feed
Funny how you could have inadvertently said something of substance.
Take your point VOR, I am now keeping out of this debate, will let the matter take it's due course! I was trying to create a bit of sarcastic hunour, who knows where this enquiry will lead!.........Maybe tiny will have the last laugh!
Hey, VOR, everybody has a go at you from time to time, but you are the "calming effect" on these forums...........By the way had the Uncle Toby's this morning, don't fee any different.....just a bit crook in the guts!..........will probably have to wait for it to kick in, once it does.......I might ring up Gus Gould and see if he needs a replacement for Michael Gordon on the wing at Penrith!
"Beware of nutraceuticals and nutritional supplements; they can have quality control problems and are known toimpact steroid profiles,"
The three trainers argued their mitigating circumstances collectively, stating that independent tests showed the presence of boldenone in the relevant batch (commonly used by all three trainers) of the feed supplements, Equitop Pronutrin, Equitop Myoplast and Equitop Gonex. The tests were done by them privately at a laboratory in the U.S. and one in India. Neither of these labs are accredited by the RWITC. The trainers pleaded that they should not be punished as they believed the feed supplements were contaminated................
The Stewards referred to two other cases that were highlighted for comparison. In the case of three horses belonging to trainer Hosidar Daji- Try your Luck, Fantastic Fury and Siberian Siren( races run in December 2007/ January 2008), trainer Daji was exonerated as the feed supplements were confirmed to be contaminated by the manufacturer, Forind Nutrients.
A very interesting read !

a strange thing i keep seeing is the swabs are positive around december !! but as for Gai Waterhouses filly being positive ??? Ray Murrihy should know more about that as it was in 2008 and he was chief !
Just remembered there has already been a Steve Carter play for Penrith!...........Actually saw him at the races month or so back!
Posts regarding Karloo Kix and Mach Wiper have been moved to threads more relevant to the issue. KARLOO KIX OK TO RACE....etc..
This thread is not about either of these cases.
Thanks for doing a bit of housekeeping!
