The Ohio State Racing Commission's (OSRC) monthly meeting will be held Tuesday, June 23 at 10 am at 77 South High Street, 31st Floor, East B, Columbus, Ohio. Due to a scheduling conflict, the proposed agenda that included scientific presentations regarding medication thresholds has been postponed. This fourth leg in a series of OSRC meetings began earlier this year concerning the development of model medication rules based on scientific and fact-based analysis will be rescheduled for a later date. The February OSRC meeting featured comments by Edward J. Martin, President of the Association of Racing Commissioners International (RCI) and Dr. Dionne Benson, Executive Director for the Racing Medication and Testing Consortium (RMTC) on current research methodology and passage of model medication rules. At the March OSRC meeting, six Ohio personalities expounded on these same issues, including: Phil Langley and Mike Tanner, of the United States Trotting Association (USTA); Dave Basler, Executive Director of the Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association (HBPA) and Thoroughbred trainer William Cowans; along with Standardbred conditioner Virgil Morgan, Jr., and Renee Mancino, Ohio Harness Horseman's Association (OHHA) Executive Director. Five veterinarians presented their views at the April OSRC meeting, including: Dr. John Reichert, partner/practitioner at the Woodland Run Equine Clinic, Grove City; Dr. Dan Wilson, partner/practitioner at the Cleveland Equine Clinic; Dr. John Piehowicz, practitioner/owner at Cincinnati Equine, LLC; Dr. Brett Berthold, owner/practitioner at the Cleveland Equine Clinic; and Dr. Clara Fenger, a founding member of North American Association of Racetrack Veterinarians and a practitioner in central Kentucky. Dr. James Robertson, the OSRC's consulting veterinarian, presented an update on the progress of the OSRC/The Ohio State University (OSU) and Ohio Department of Agriculture's Analytical Toxicology Laboratory (ATL)'s comprehensive cobalt research study at the May OSRC meeting. Dr. Beverly Byrum, Director of Laboratories for the Ohio Department of Agriculture's Analytical Toxicology Laboratory (ATL) the Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory (ADDL) and the Consumer Protection Lab, spoke in detail about the ATL, the official OSRC equine drug testing lab, while fellow ATL Director Soobeng Tan submitted the 2014 ATL annual report to the OSRC, discussing testing procedures and results from 2014. All OSRC monthly meetings are open to the public and horsemen are encouraged to attend. Kimberly A. Rinker Ohio Standardbred Development Fund Ohio State Racing Commission
Five veterinarians presented their views on testing and medication issues at the Ohio State Racing Commission's (OSRC) monthly meeting on April 28 in Columbus. Early in 2015, the OSRC began listening to presentations from a wide variety of individuals concerning the development of model medication rules based upon scientific and fact-based analysis. Veterinarian Dr. John Piehowicz, who treats racehorses at his Cincinnati-based clinic said "the welfare of the horse must come first," mirroring the mindset of the other veterinarians in attendance. "I believe Ohio's policy is the most humane for treating horses," Dr. Piehowicz stated. "While uniformity is desirable, it is not practical. Currently I can help horses, but if we change to the RCI-RMTC rules, I can no longer effectively treat racehorses with safe, FDA-approved medications. We need a published curve based on real world information and rational decisions based on creditable research. The use of some medications, such as Clenbuterol, allow racehorses to live comfortably." "I commend the OSRC in the direction they are going regarding medication policies," stressed Dr. John Reichert, who practices on Standardbreds at Woodland Run clinic in Grove City, Ohio. "In Ohio we've had 122 positives from 12,000 tests in the past year, which is less than one percent. That says to me there are relatively few positive tests in Ohio and that the majority of people-vets and trainers-are playing by the rules. The hot issues with the RCI-RMTC are steroids and Clenbuterol, which we use primarily to treat inflammatory airway disease and joint issues." "In my practice, I'm addressing mainly soreness, lameness and breathing issues," Dr. Reichert continued. "Corticosteroids are used a lot in inflammatory airway disease and joint issues, and in the 25 years I've been a vet I have yet to see a catastrophic breakdown from the use of these steroids. Nobody wants a catastrophic breakdown-but unfortunately it is part of the athletic scene. We see more of these from backyard pleasure horses than we do in racehorses. "In regards to Clenbuterol, as vets, we have to be able to use Clenbuterol within reason," Dr. Reichert stressed. "My perspective as a vet is that I look at Clenbuterol as a therapeutic treatment of a racehorse. A five-day course of treatment is more of what is required for the Standardbred racehorse. Scientific research doesn't support performance-enhancement by the use of Clenbuterol." "It's difficult to obey the rules if you don't know what they are," explained Dr. Dan Wilson, a partner/practitioner at the Cleveland Equine Clinic. "We routinely test blood and urine, and the tests are sophisticated to the level of one grain of sand on a beach. There is nothing to suggest this level would enhance a horse's performance. Muscle and enzyme physiology is different for each breed: Thoroughbred, Standardbred and Quarter horses-they are all different. As proposed, the RCI & RMTC rules would alleviate all therapeutic medications for the use in Standardbreds. The loss of Clenbuterol and corticosteroids for treatment in Standardbred racing would compromise the industry and limit my ability to effectively treat horses." "We need uniform medication rules," agreed Dr. Brett Berthold, owner/practitioner at the Cleveland Equine Clinic. "Corticosteroids are used daily by my friends in the human medical field and we need the same tools as veterinarians. A uniform program needs to be in place for daily treatments, and there needs to be regulated medications we are allowed to use therapeutically. The question I have is in regards to dosage in surgical medications, that's an issue. Where is the safe zone? The emergence of newer therapeutic medications being adopted into the regulations is another main concern regarding the welfare of the horse." "There is not another commission in the country that has gone to the depths of what the OSRC is doing here." admitted Dr. Clara Fenger, a founding member of the North American Association of Racetrack Veterinarians (NAARV) and Kentucky practitioner. "Eighteen of the 26 drugs in the RCI-RMTC report have no published data. The idea of thresholds is great and we're all about uniform rules, but let's get things right first. "In 2013 for instance, 24 hours out was the standard time for Banamine (to be administered prior to a race) and then in 2014 a new study came out and the RCI-RMTC said 'oops! we were wrong and Banamine can now only be used 32 hours out,'" Dr. Clara Fenger. "All kinds of people got positives as a result and purses had to be redistributed and horsemen were in danger of losing their livelihood. There was just vagueness in their limits. "We use medications because we need to," she stressed. "For instance, 27% of yearlings that go through the Keeneland Sale already have arthritis in their hocks-and that's not limited to Thoroughbreds. It's in all breeds-as these are living, breathing animals we're dealing with. We need education so that other practitioners can learn what works best in practical situations. Based on our preliminary data, most vets are using the appropriate amounts. Most Ohio rules we can live with and the RCI should be looking to Ohio instead of the other way around." The OSRC will listen to chemists and scientists present their views on these same medication and threshold levels in Standardbred and Thoroughbred racehorses at its June 23 meeting, schedule for 10 am, 31st Floor,East-B, 77 South High Street, Columbus.

Five veterinarians have been invited to speak at the Ohio State Racing Commission monthly meeting to discuss possible medication practices for Ohio horseracing. The meeting will be held on April 28, at 10 a.m., 19th floor of the Riffe Center, 77 South High St., Columbus. These veterinarians will present their views regarding medication protocols for both the Thoroughbred and Standardbred racing industries, and provide their insight into the Racing Commissioners International (RCI) and Racing Medication and Testing Consortium (RMTC) controlled therapeutic medication proposals. The veterinarians scheduled to attend include: Dr. John Reichert, partner/practitioner at the Woodland Run Equine Clinic in Grove City. Dr. Dan Wilson, partner/practitioner at the Cleveland Equine Clinic specializing in racetrack Standardbreds, equine anesthesia, and racing medications and testing. Dr. John Piehowicz, practitioner/owner at Cincinnati Equine, LLC, whose client list includes Kentucky Derby and Breeders' Cup winning conditioners. Dr. Brett Berthold, owner/practitioner at the Cleveland Equine Clinic whose area of focus includes lameness evaluation, respiratory health and MRI. Dr. Clara Fenger, a founding member of North American Association of Racetrack Veterinarians and a practitioner in central Kentucky. At the March OSRC meeting, the USTA's Phil Langley and Mike Tanner, along with the HBPA's Dave Basler and trainer William Cowans and the OHHA's Renee Mancino and trainer Virgil Morgan, Jr., offered their thoughts on medication and testing procedures. During February's OSRC meeting Edward Martin, RCI President and Dr. Dionne Benson, RMTC Executive Director provided input into these same subjects. The OSRC values input from all stakeholders within both the Thoroughbred and Standardbred Ohio racing communities and is moving forward into developing a sound medication policy. Kimberly A.

In the management of horse health, injuries and disease, conscientious horse owners would never put their horse at risk; however, improper use of some commonly administered equine drugs can impact the health and safety of our horses more than we think. Seldom does a month go by when media attention doesn't focus on a positive drug test in the horseracing world. The news leaves many in the horse industry to shake their heads and wonder how trainers or owners could do such a thing to their animals. But did you know that the majority of these positives involve some of the more commonly used drugs that we administer to our horses on a routine basis and which can produce some pretty unsettling results? Under Diagnosis and Over Treatment Used to relieve pain, allow or promote healing, and control or cure a disease process, therapeutic medications can be effective when they are used properly, but are quite dangerous when misused. Phenylbutazone, or "bute," is one of the most commonly administered prescription drugs in the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) family. When used properly, NSAIDs offer relief from pain and help in the reduction of inflammation and fever. Found in the medicine kits of many horse owners, bute can be prescribed for a plethora of ailments, including sole bruising, hoof abscesses, tendon strains, sprained ligaments and arthritic joints. NSAIDS are invaluable as a medication, says Dr. Alison Moore, lead veterinarian for Animal Health and Welfare at the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in Guelph, Ontario. "When used appropriately, they are very safe; however, some horse owners tend to give too much of a good thing," she says. Dr. Moore goes on to say that this form of drug (bute) is both economical and convenient, available in either injectable and oral formulations; but is most likely to cause problems if given too long or in improperly high doses, especially if horses are more sensitive to NSAID toxicity. "If you look at the chronic use of bute, there's certainly known ramifications from it," says Dr. Moore. "There's health derived issues including gastric and colon ulcers, as well as renal impairment. Renal impairment is more prevalent in older horses that have developed issues with their kidney function or with equine athletes that perform strenuous exercise and divert blood flow from their kidneys. Chronic or repeated dehydration is also a risk factor for renal impairment. Chronic exposure to bute is more likely to cause signs attributable to the gastrointestinal tract." Clinical signs of toxicity include diarrhea, colic, ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract (seen as low protein and/or anemia on blood work or as ulcers on an endoscopic examination), poor hair coat, and weight loss. In the event of such symptoms, the medication should be stopped and the vet called for diagnosis and treatment. While a different type of drug, flunixin meglumine (trade name Banamine), is found in the same NSAID family. "It's not typically used as chronically as bute because it's more expensive and mostly used for gastrointestinal , muscular or ocular pain, but if misused, especially with dehydrated horses, kidney and digestive tract toxicity can occur similarly to bute," Dr. Moore notes. Because of the deleterious effect chronic NSAIDS can have on your horse, it is even more important not to "stack" NSAIDS. This is the process where two NSAIDS, usually bute and flunixin, or bute and firocoxib, are given at the same time. Not only does the dual administration create gastrointestinal and renal problems as listed above, but bute and flunixin given together can cause a severely low blood protein that may affect interactions with other medications. That Calming Effect The list of tranquilizers, sedatives and supplements intended to calm a horse can be extensive, including some which can be purchased online or at your local tack shop. For example, Acepromazine, known as "Ace," is commonly used as a tranquilizer to keep a horse calm and relaxed by depressing the central nervous system. It is available as an injection or in granular form and does not require a prescription. If given incorrectly, it can carry a risk of injury or illness for the horse. "Tranquilizers can be used to keep horses quiet for training purposes or for stalled horses due to injury, but it can be difficult to control the dose when given orally," states Dr. Moore. "The difficulty with chronic administration is you don't know how much you're dosing your horse or how the horse is metabolizing it. Since it is highly protein bound in the bloodstream, a horse with low protein may develop side effects more quickly or react to a lower dose. Side effects include prolapse of the penis, which is more of a problem in stallions, and low hematocrit, a measure of red cell percentage in the blood. At very high doses, the horse will develop ataxia [a wobbly gait] and profuse sweating." As every horse is different, and the correct dosage needs to be calculated based on the horse's weight and other influences, Dr. Moore stresses the importance of having a vet oversee any tranquilizer use. It is also important to inform the veterinarian of any acepromazine given to your horse, as it can affect the outcome of veterinary procedures, such as dentistry that requires sedation. Drug Compounding In equine medicine, compounding is the manipulation of one drug outside its original, approved form to make a different dose for a specific patient, whether it's mixing two drugs together or adding flavouring to a commercially available drug. However, mathematical errors can occur. Last July, Equine Canada issued a notice asking their members to use compounded drugs with caution citing that because these medications are not available as a licensed product, they may contain different concentrations compared to a licensed product. There have been several instances where the medication contained too little of an active ingredient, leaving it ineffective, or too much, which can result in death. Compounded drugs and its related risks came to light several years ago with the high-profile deaths of 21 polo ponies at the U.S. Open Polo Championships in Wellington, Florida in 2009. After being injected with a compounded vitamin supplement that was incorrectly mixed, all 21 ponies collapsed and died. "The biggest issue with compounded drugs is that many horse owners are not often aware of what it means," says Dr. Moore. "They think it's a generic form of a drug, but it's not. It's the mixing of an active pharmaceutical ingredient, wherever it comes from in the world, with whatever flavour powder or product the pharmacy or veterinarian puts together. When going from one jar to the next, the concentrations could be different. It could be twice the strength, and that's harmful or half the strength and have little effect." Because this process is not regulated with respect to quality, safety and efficacy, there can be risks associated with compounding drugs. "Technically, veterinarians are not supposed to dispense a compounded drug if there is a commercially available product already, such as phenylbutazone [bute]," says Dr. Moore. "If your vet felt that there was a therapeutic use for a combination product of bute and vitamin E, then that is a legitimate reason for compounding it. But a lot of people want to use compounded drugs because they're cheaper. But cheaper doesn't necessarily mean better." Dr. Moore explains that without careful attention to the appropriate dosage and administration, such as shaking the bottle properly so that no residue will settle in the bottom (or the last few doses will be extremely concentrated), health issues can occur. Compounded medications have provided a lot of benefit to horse health by providing access to products or product forms that would be difficult to obtain otherwise, but because of the concerns regarding quality control, horse owners should fully understand the potential risks of using a compounded product and discuss these concerns with their veterinarian. Deworming Strategies In the past, traditional deworming programs didn't consider each horse as an individual, as common practice was to deworm the entire barn on a fixed, regular schedule. However, over the past 10 years, studies have shown there is a growing concern regarding parasite resistance to dewormers. Veterinarians now recommend that horses be screened for parasites by way of a fecal egg test first instead of deworming with a product that may not be effective against parasite burdens. A fecal exam is far safer than administering deworming medications that they don't need. Dewormers are safe when used properly, including testing first and using a weight tape for an accurate dosage. Dr. Moore suggests contacting your vet to develop a deworming program that is right for your horse and your specific area. A Question of Welfare? Horse owners should be aware of the more frequent reactions to drug use in their horses and consider both the short term and long term effects before use. Consideration of the horse's welfare should not only for the present, but also for its future. With the use of drugs and horses, it's important to: * proceed with the guidance of your veterinarian; * use the lowest possible dosage possible in order to achieve the desired results; * calculate the correct dosage based on your horse's body weight through the use of a weight tape; * closely monitor your horse throughout the course of treatment. "It's being very aware of the use of our common, everyday drugs. As good a drug as it is, when it's misused, negative effects will occur," says Dr. Moore. "There's a greater importance on knowing the overall health level of your horse. It's always best to have a good base point first, and because the kidneys and liver are the two main organs that process medication, it's important to know that those organs are working properly. That's why those annual veterinary wellness exams are so important."

Columbus, OH --- Results of an intensive, United States Trotting Association-funded scientific study intended to ascertain the appropriate regulatory level for determining the excessive presence of the naturally-occurring substance cobalt were announced on Tuesday (Sept. 30). Based upon extensive research, the scientists have concluded that 70 parts per billion in blood is the appropriate regulatory threshold. The recommendation guards against false positives, while identifying those who are engaged in artificial administration with the intent to enhance a horse's performance. "I want to thank Doctors Maylin, McKeever and Malinowski for applying appropriate scientific principles and protocols to achieve a regulatory threshold that is both reasonable for the industry and efficacious in deterring those who would choose to violate it," said USTA President Phil Langley in praising the contingent's diligent efforts. "With substances that are a natural constituent of a horse like cobalt, there is always a fine line between catching the cheaters and protecting innocent horsemen from violation. These scientists worked hard to achieve a proper balance, which should serve as a guidepost for the rest of the industry," added Langley. The USTA Medication Advisory Committee will continue to study the overall effects of cobalt and other substances in the racehorse in greater detail. Research indicates that cobalt stimulates the production of erythropoietin (EPO) to produce red blood cells. Widespread abuse of cobalt by human athletes has been rumored for years, and its purported use in racehorses prompted the USTA to take a highly proactive approach in the prevention of its artificial administration for the purpose of illicit performance enhancement. In June, the USTA contracted with Dr. George Maylin of New York's Drug Testing and Research Program at Morrisville State College to determine at what level cobalt ceases being considered a naturally occurring substance and becomes a clear attempt at performance enhancement. His work was assisted by Director Dr. Karyn Malinowski and Associate Director Dr. Ken McKeever from the Equine Science Center at Rutgers University in New Jersey. Based upon the USTA's funding, Dr. Maylin was able to secure a long-term lease of a specialized state-of-the-art instrument required to conduct proper scientific analysis to determine the presence and levels of cobalt in samples. That new, unique equipment with unrivaled performance differentiates these results from any other scientific study on the artificial introduction of cobalt in horses. It is anticipated that the regulators in several jurisdictions will consider the suggested threshold when the supporting data is released. From the USTA Communications Department
Here at Harnesslink we are constantly trying to bring you updates on all the harness racing and breeding issues affecting our industry. However we feel little or no coverage is given to the multitude of companies and service providers that provide products to the harness racing community. Therefore we thought it was timely to take a look at some of these companies and the products they offer. One of those companies is, APC, Inc., the manufacturer of the new LIFELINE serum-based equine performance products. While mostly unknown in the equine industry, APC is a third-generation family-owned company headquartered in Iowa. This science-based company is a global leader in the fractionation (concentration) of serum and plasma-based proteins. For over 30 years the company has been spearheading discoveries that have improved performance and health of many species of animals including calves, swine, aquaculture and more. With such proven performance in other species, APC realized they could apply these learnings to the equine industry. Everybody in the harness racing industry knows that for the equine athlete, racing, training and travelling takes a significant toll on your horse's performance. Joint soreness, stomach upset and respiratory issues, often caused by inflammation, have been major factors affecting performance since the inception of this industry. The success of the LIFELINE range of equine products is due to BioThrive™. This active ingredient is made using APC's proprietary process. Derived from bovine serum, its safety and beneficial effects have been documented in more than 300 published peer reviewed journal articles. These bioactive proteins have been shown to help support a healthy inflammation response. When a horse experiences stress or occasional soreness due to normal training, its immune system springs into action to combat the stressors. This immune system response results in inflammation which can have an effect on the following; Gut - digestive health and related conditions such as ulcers Joint - occasional soreness Respiratory - breathing and lung issues related to exercise Bioactive proteins when given orally help reduce overstimulation of the immune system so the horse's resources aren't spent fighting the stressor and instead can promote a healthy gut, maintain proper joint function and ease respiratory issues related to exercise. Unlike a lot of the products on the market, LIFELINE is not a vitamin or mineral supplement which typically target nutrition and work in just one system at a time. It works multisystemically. It also works fast with studies demonstrating a difference within just fourteen days. LIFELINE has two equine products which are aimed at horses in different stages of their life. Both products have bioactive proteins as their active ingredient, specifically formulated based on the age of the horse. Equine Elite is for horses experiencing the rigors of training and racing. AgeWell is for the older horse who is experiencing the physical effects of aging but are still expected to perform to their best. A recent gait analysis study conducted by Dr. Josie Coverdale and Joy Campbell of Texas A+M University measured stride length and knee range of motion with increasing dosage of serum-based bioactive proteins in exercised horses. The response strongly suggested that the horses in the study experienced healthy joint function and/or comfort while on LIFLINE BioThrive™. This study involved thirty horses over a 28 day period and was a robust academic study in a controlled setting and reinforced the feedback that LIFELINE was receiving daily from its clients. APC is also in various stages of process for a number of other studies on horses to include gut health, training in 2-year old stallions and mare/foal pairs. Results are not finalized but are promising. LIFELINE takes corporate responsibility very seriously. It is a member of the National Animal Supplement Council which is dedicated to protecting and enhancing the health of companion animals and horses The company has also invested in research ensuring that LIFELINE products are show/competition safe. The LIFELINE brand has come a long way over the past few decades. Between its significant investment in R&D, current and upcoming scientific study results and positive testimonials from product users, the future for APC looks assured. All in all I think the company motto says it all about LIFELINE – Watch Them Thrive. http://horse.watchthemthrive.com/ For this months special offer click here.

Schenectady, NY – Harness Racing's top guns descended upon the New York State Gaming Commission public hearing to advance concerns over proposed drug levels for racehorses. U. S. Trotting Association President, Phil Langley, and Standardbred Owners Association of New York President, Joe Faraldo, led a group of distinguished veterinarians and research experts to counter the "one size fits all" approach being forwarded by the Thoroughbred-based Racing Medication and Testing Consortium (RMTC) proposals. The appearance of the Standardbred leaders at the public hearing, called by the agency formerly known as the NYS Racing and Wagering board, was to hear "testimony about adoption of per se regulatory thresholds for 24 approved equine medications and amending pre-race restricted time periods for various drugs." One particular therapeutic substance, respiratory aid Clenbuterol, has been at the forefront of a debate over uniform medication rules approved by the RMTC. Although there is widespread Thoroughbred support for the measures, the Standardbred industry has argued that the two breeds have very distinct differences and therefore should be treated differently. The proposed rule would prohibit the bronchial dilator from being administered within 14 days of racing, effectively eliminating its potential benefit to Standardbreds that generally race every week. Langley noted that, "Our horses are so durable, they do not even look [like Thoroughbreds.] Many of our horses race 30 to 40 times each year. In fact, the leading money-winning horse of all time started 198 times. We are not trying to get the standards lowered. We just want to conduct [racing] the way we are." Dr. Kanter, an expert in equine medicine and pharmacology, with over 40 years of experience as the track vet at Buffalo and Batavia. "This measure could be denying horses the benefit of years of research of these useful therapeutic drugs, while the efficacy of known substitutes is yet unproven." Dr. Janet Durso of Goshen, NY, reiterated those concerns. "Clenbuterol is one of the best drugs for treating blood and discharge from a horse's lungs. Remedies would be problematic without it!" One of the contributing factors toward this proposal is the concern that some Thoroughbred trainers are abusing Clenbuterol by overdosing in order to achieve a repartitioning effect, or to build muscle mass. That appears to be a non-issue in Standardbreds as they race too often for long-term dosages to be administered effectively. Dr. Tobin, a renowned expert from the University of Kentucky Gluck Equine Research Center, stated, "Clenbuterol did have a repartitioning effect and increased muscle mass, but this did not translate into an increase in performance. In fact, it decreased performance." Although the prospect of catastrophic injury of racehorses was discussed, Dr. Tobin noted that "Harness Racing was one of the safest sports in North America. Only 1 in 15,000 fatal injuries occurred in Standardbreds, where 1 in 2,000 occurred in Thoroughbreds over the same time period." Several other items were addressed, such as the list of 24 drugs that would provide for the basis of drugs that would have established levels for testing. All others would be considered "off-limits" for use and result in positive tests if found in race-day blood or urine testing. In addition, the proposal of special corticosteroid regulations sparked added debate. Of the nine speakers, eight of the experts gave convincing testimony toward the need for separate rules for each breed. Dr. Dionne Benson, the executive director of the RMTC (Racing Medication and Testing Consortium), was the last speaker and lone dissenter. She noted that the ad hoc committee for all breeds felt that the thresholds are appropriate, and that the state of Pennsylvania was "on-board" with her groups recommendations. Nonetheless, Joe Faraldo is not convinced that the RMTC proposals are suitable for Harness Racing. "We heard today that not all of the scientific bases have been covered. I believe that the [NYS Gaming Board] is cognizant of that fact. Because this board took the time to listen to all of these points of view, and the science behind them, it is a good indication that Harness Racing will be treated fairly." by Chris Tully for Harnesslink.com
What has been described in some quarters as the biggest doping scandal in racing history occurred in England last month. The magnitude of the incident aside, there is a lesson to be learned from this notorious event that has little to do with doping. The message developed is this: Advocate for others only that which you truly practice yourself.
Darren Binskin is fuming with Harness Racing New South Wales officialdom after what he has termed a 'Miracle Mile' (A$750,000) disgrace. The Australian trainer now intends to confront them with all guns blazing in a hearing in Sydney at 2.30pm on Wednesday.
Due to an overwhelming positive response, Equine Guelph has opened registration for a second offering of their eWorkshop on colic prevention. Over 80 students from local and international background gained valuable knowledge over the course of 2 weeks in March to combat the number one killer of horses (other than old age!) with Equine Guelph's new eWorkshop on colic prevention.
In the Paulick Report's "The Breeders' Cup Forum: Lasix – A Racetrack Practitioner's Perspective" (March 7, 2013), Dr. Don Shields, who has been a practicing veterinarian at Southern California racetracks for more than 25 years, makes a compelling argument for the use of furosemide (Lasix) to treat horses for exercise induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH) in both training and racing.
The Board of Directors of Racing Commissions International has voted to move forward with a major revision of the association's model medication rules for horse racing.
The key to a horse's health lies beneath its appearance. A growing number of horse owners rely on the misconception that if their horse appears healthy and fit, then chances are it is. What if we had the tools to help us look beyond a horse's appearance so that good decisions could be made for its optimal health and management?
'Equine Stress and Transportation' is the over-arching theme of the upcoming Horse Management Seminar hosted by the Rutgers Equine Science Center and Rutgers Cooperative Extension. The seminar, scheduled from 8:00 am - 3:30 pm on Sunday, February 10, 2013, will feature presentations by several equine industry experts.
Colic is the number one killer of horses (other than old age!) and Equine Guelph is launching a comprehensive colic survey across Canada to better understand colic management practices in the industry and how people are dealing with colic. "Understanding the horse owners' experiences with colic will assist in developing targeted educational programs," says Gayle Ecker, director of Equine Guelph.
The time to expect thoroughbred and harness racing and its current regulatory framework of state commissions to reform medication policies has come and gone.

Baylor Senior
40: 5.25
Has good size with a compact, thick build. Has quick hands that does a good job initiating contact both as a run blocker and in pass protection. Has the strength and ability to win in a short-area. Does a nice job redirecting the nose tackle or power move, and can lock on at times with his punch in pass protection. When he gets good initial posiiton off the snap, he shows some leg drive to develop. Does a good job using his size to get position and wall off a defender. Has decent footwork and plays with good base, as he'll only struggle matching up with the most powerful players. Decent athleticism to pull and block on the second level. Has very good mean streak and consistently finishes his blocks.
Is too much of a waist bender, getting overextended when trying to deliver punch to a moving target. Doesn't do a great job when going up against moving targets, particularly on the second level. Not a power player and doesn't show consistent leg drive to move defenders off the ball. At times will get jolted off the snap and doesn't get great extension with his punch in pass protection. Needs to play with better initial hand placement as a run blocker, allowing defenders to get leverage at times. Does a bit too much grabbing at times. Needs to play with better knee bend and does not adjust well in space. Can be iffy on some of his exchanges in the shotgun, despite working in a shotgun-heavy offense.
Blake is a thick, powerful center that works well in a phone booth. He isn't asked to move a lot in Baylor's spread pass attack, and while he flashes the potential as a run blocker, their scheme doesn't always translate well to the next level. The last two promising Baylor blockers: Jason Smith and Danny Watkins have struggled with their initial transitions to the pros, and you wonder if Blake will follow suit. He has enough ability and versatility that he could also play some guard at the next level, if center doesn't work out. He'll turn 27 in November. After graduating from high school, he spent two years at Champlain Regional College, a post-secondary school before turning up at Tyler Junior College in Texas. He's a native of Toronto, and has already been drafted by a CFL team.
(9/2) vs. TCU: 4 key blocks; Downfield: 1/3; Pull: 1/1; 1 penalty (chop block)

(12/29) vs. Washington: 1 key block, 1.5 pressures; Downfield: 1/2

Blake is a nice center prospect because he offers a bit more beef than your traditional NFL center. But he worked best in a phone booth and in a similar scheme he may do his best work at the next level. He has the potential to be a starter, but I don't think he'll come in right away and produce there, and instead is a developmental option that may need two or so years before he can really iron the kinks out of his game. He has quick hands, but just needs to refine his technique and punch a bit more to really produce. HIs footwork is adequate, but that also needs some polish. Blake has the strength and size to matchup against the bigger 3-4 nose tackles at the next level, but again I think he needs some work before he's ready to be a starter. If he doesn't work out as a center, he offers enough size and strength to play guard. But his footwork isn't ideal there, and he's probably not a guy that you want as a long-term solution there. But playing on the left side, where he could get more help from the center would definitely improve his chances. At the very least, he can be a solid and versatile backup at all three interior positions. If he does turn into a starter, he'll probably not be one of the top centers in the league, but a solid starter capable of getting the job done.
Chris Spencer, Bears.
Blake offers developmental potential for the Falcons. He offers more size and strength than Hawley does as a potential replacement for McClure. He would definitely get a chance to develop for at least a year before he would compete directly with Hawley for the job. His ability to play guard as well means the Falcons could afford to carry him on the roster as a third center as a rookie. But in truth, he's probably not a better guard prospect than some of the other young reserves on the line, so that if he's beaten by Hawley for the starting gig, he'd just be a backup. But he'd make a good backup. He does have potential to beat Hawley for the job, but given that Hawley would have three years of experience on him, I would probably not give Blake the edge.
Blake is a solid developmental center prospect with enough upside to be a starter, but is more likely to be a good reserve. That means that at the earliest a team could take him in the latter half of the fourth, but he's better value in the fifth round.
1-pathetic, 2-poor, 3-weak, 4-below average, 5-average, 6-above average, 7-good, 8-very good, 9-excellent, 10-elite

Yesterday afternoon House Speaker John Boehner officially announced Rep. Trey Gowdy will lead a new Benghazi select committee. As a former prosecutor, Gowdy is a seasoned investigator who asks tough questions.
Last night, Gowdy made an appearance On the Record to discuss his new role and his plans to get to the bottom of what happened.
"The jury that I'm interested in are reasonable minded, fair minded people," Gowdy said, adding that he hopes Democrats will cooperate with the investigation to move forward. "At least let the process have a chance to work."
"There are certain things in our culture that have to transcend politics," he said. "The murder of four fellow Americans and an attack on a facility that is emblematic of our country, should transcend politics and I know our fellow citizens can handle the truth but only if they get access to it."

"The president expressed his extraordinary admiration for the character and resolve of the Japanese people, and his confidence that Japan will make a full recovery from this disaster," said the White House in a statement.
Shortly after, the U.S. State Department authorized the first evacuations of Americans out of Japan. Taking no chances, U.S. officials have ordered all Americans within 50 miles of the plant to evacuate.
It also issued a warning to Americans to avoid traveling to the quake and tsunami-ravaged nation.
Chartered planes will begin assisting American citizens wishing to leave the country.
"For a comparable situation in the United States we would recommend an evacuation to a much larger radius than has been provided in Japan," he said. "As a result of this recommendation, the ambassador in Japan has issued a statement to American citizens that we believe it is appropriate to evacuate to a larger distance, up to approximately 50 miles."
Japan has not expanded its radius of evacuation, which requires those living within 12 miles to leave their homes and those between 12 and 19 miles from the plant to stay indoors.
One hundred and eighty workers rotate shifts, working at the plant in teams of 50 men. The men have been nicknamed the "Fukushima Fifty."
One U.S. official told ABC News that they are urging the Japanese to get more people to help the workers inside the plant.
"This is very, very radioactive material...if there is core on the floor and containment penetration, there will be significant public health consequences," Ken Bergeron, a physicist and nuclear reactor safety expert, said.
Radiation levels were as high as 10 millisieverts per hour yesterday, the equivalent of getting a CT scan for every hour of exposure. Radiation levels have since dropped and the plant workers are planning to return to work, officials said.
The Japanese government has actually amended its national safety standard on how much radiation workers can be exposed to so that workers can return to the plant. The limit is now 250 millisieverts, 2.5 times the previous limit.
Emperor Akihito, a figure deeply respected in Japan, spoke for the first time yesterday since the March 11 earthquake that has left at least 5,300 people dead. He tried to ease worries about the country's nuclear crisis.
"With the help of those involved I hope things will not get worse," Akihito, 77, said.
He offered his condolences to a grieving nation where at least 9,083 people are still missing and 434,000 are homeless.
"It is important that each of us shares the difficult days that lie ahead," Akihito said. "I pray that we will all take care of each other and overcome this tragedy."

Smear job against Romney on Bain?
Romney does seem to have difficulty giving consistent answers to questions.See more
Eric Holder right on voter ID law?
Given that no one on the other said has ever presented any evidence of widespread vote fraud, it is hard to see any argument on the other side. The only plausible motivation for the voter ID laws in Texas and elsewhere is to keep African Americans and other minorities from voting.See more
Does SCOTUS ruling seal Obama's victory?
This means that President Obama can say that nearly everyone will be able to afford health care insurance if he is reelected and that will not be true if Romney wins and is able to get what he claims he wants.See more
Super PAC influence overblown?
The fact someone like Adelson can give tens of millions of dollars to political candidates should worry anyone who believes in democracy. It takes lots of money to win elections and if some individuals give as much as millions of ordinary people then it implies that they will have millions of times as much influence. That should be sufficiently straightforward that even an elite Washington reporter can understand it.See more
Are President Obama's critics embarrassed by a tweet about the Commerce secretary?
No one other than people who get paid to talk about politics is going to care about President Obama's "gaffe that the private sector economy is 'doing fine.'" It was a stupid thing to say, but we have never had someone run for the presidency who can't boast of a long list of stupid things that they have said.See more

It's very possible that the Pittsburgh Steelers could be chosen this year to be the subject matter for the HBO training camp documentary, "Hard Knocks", and if that ultimately happens, head coach Mike Tomlin will not be happy camper.
During a recent sit down interview with Bob Pompeani of KDKA-TV, Tomlin shared his thoughts on the matter.
"On a personal level, I'm not in favor of it," said Tomlin. "That's just me. I think that time of year in terms of team development, there are a lot of complex things going on as it is. There's many layers to it and to add to it, is not conducive to what we go there to do, from my perspective."
Tomlin did not stop there with his feelings on possibly being the subject matter this year.
"It is a joke and just because it happens to be popular, doesn't mean I have to participate," he said.
The NFL will not decide on which team will be on the NFL reality show until June or July.
Just what Goodell needs to hear. The Steelers will definitely be selected now. Oh well, as a fan of this team, I'm looking forward to it.
Is the league going to pull a comp pick for Tomlin calling Hard Knocks a JOKE? Maybe another 100K fine?
Well as a big fan and woudl love to watch it.. Tomlin pretty much gauranteed we will be watching it.. well guess i gotta subscribe to HBO now.. ugh..
As much as I get tired of Goodell's power-trips…I actually can understand this one. I don't think it's fair that a show which NFL fans love receives such tepid volunteerism by the teams. This is NOT live television, mike. Nor is it military intelligence. Your genius military strategies will not be exposed, and thus collapse the free world. I hope the NFL forces the Steelers to participate…and guess what? There will be one new HBO subscriber named Brendon Glad if that happens. And I'm pretty sure both the league and HBO know I won't be the only new subscriber who would join specifically for that reason.
I agree that it is a Joke and most of the organizations/teams that have been featured on Hard Knocks are jokes as well
And I will giggle like a little schoolgirl the year they force Belichick to do it. He thinks he's holding Riddle of the Sphinx behind his gates, and it gets REALLY annoying how important he thinks his secrets are. Of course, he does cheat a lot, so I'll touche' myself.
If you make playoffs you can't be forced to attend it. So Belichick is free unless he volunteers.
As a fan…i'm dreading the possibility.
i get the exact opposite reaction. I don't want to see this happen at all!
If we would have made the playoffs coach Tomlin wouldn't have to worry.
You're an idiot!!! How long have you been a fan of the Steelers? This isn't something the Steelers are in favor of, not just Mike Tomlin but the entire Rooney Family in the front office. This isn't the Steelers way at all.
Hmm! Another idiot!
If you want to stay around here, you will change your ways quickly.
Thank you Tomlin.. I couldn't agree more
Mixed feelings on this one. Probably not the greatest thing for the team, but as a fan I'd love to watch it. Definitely not the smartest thing for Tomlin to call it a joke tho, and say he doesn't have to participate just because it's popular lol. If there's someone out there that wants to stick it to the Steelers then he just gave 'em extra motivation.
The first year of the show I was in love! Even if it was the Bengals! Sure it's not ideall for the team but these guys have to understand how little we know about how they run their business and it's such a treat to peak behind the curtain! I just got HBO so I'm hoping it's us!
Especially with all the new faces we'll have this year! Being on the west coast I never get this kinda coverage of my team!
We don't need that garbage. Isn't life reality enough for you guys? Go watch swamp garbage or something.smh
We are rebuilding for the near future and this reality garbage is not welcome by me.
I agree 100% with Tomlin. That show is a joke and is for franchises with no class.
I don't care about hard knocks but I wish they would do away with that Thursday night game.
Agree. The folks who want to see this are akin to the paparazzi….c'mon, get real…
Belichick just spent the entire 2013 season mic'd, which the NFL Network is turning into a series.
I'm so torn. I want to see my team on Hard knocks really bad, but also don't want the distraction. I would despise bringing in Someone like Micheal Sam or Tim Tebow not because of their religion or sexual orientation but because the media circus that will follow. I guess if I was forced to choose one way or the other I would agree w Tomlin and be against it. Does anyone know exactly how long the filming takes place for??
If the cards fall right, we can see James Harrison on Hard Knocks, two years in a row.
Why is that?
I wish there were NFL games every night of the week, 52 weeks of the year.
Does that mean that you wouldn't watch if the Steelers are on? I don't like the idea either but I would feel compelled to watch it.
Couldn't disagree with you anymore.
Amen. Mike, I hope you fight this crap. To even make it mandatory is just plain stupid. Just because some fans want it don't mean you should do it.
For Goodell its all about the money and trust me, if he gets additional games, HBO might be the next billion dollar bidder.
Its complete crap! Good for him
No I wouldn't. That's more because I'm cheap and won't pay for HBO, but I'll say it's because I don't agree with them being on there, lol.
After what Tomlin said, wouldn't be surprised if they made the Steelers do Hard Knocks this year and maybe next time he won't open his mouth and say something stupid.
Fair enough, but there's always the possibility of a friend's house.
Unfortunately, I think Tomlin DOES have to worry about it. Of the eight teams eligible this year (Arizona, Buffalo, Chicago, Jacksonville, New York Giants, Oakland, Pittsburgh, St. Louis) the Steelers are by far the most nationally popular and likely the biggest possible attraction for the show (followed by the Bears and Giants, IMO). If no one volunteers I could see them being picked.
However, the Rooneys do have considerable pull in the league…
So let me get this right….
When Tomlin gives the standard PC answers in press conferences– the fans castrate him for his clichés.
When Tomlin actually gives his opinion on something (an opinion shared by most fans)– now he is stupid for opening his mouth?
You just can't please some fans…
Wow! Gotta say I never would have seen that coming. Good for him. maybe he's learned that it's not that big of a deal to give access. Hopefully the Steelers will learn the same this year.
Based on Louis' comment below, looks like I need to backtrack on my second blurb. That's fine. I'm glad Belichick is coming to realize that you can still win football games while giving access. If it was a live telecast, I'd understand. But it's carefully edited to not put teams at a disadvantage.
Hard Knocks chronicles training camp; that's all.

Mike Norrdin's most immediate Christmas wish was to avoid being stuck in a Commerce City hotel room for the holiday.
The San Jose resident had made it to Denver International Airport about noon on Wednesday on one of the last flights to land in the blizzard, and his brother who picked him up wisely determined that they couldn't make it to the mountains in his two-wheel-drive Volkswagen Jetta with bald tires.
"The visibility was so poor, and guys were off the road left and right. We ended up just missing a guy in the ditch. So we were calling and calling for any hotel we could get in the area and got one of the last rooms," Norrdin said.

But with the help of a big SUV pulling them from a snowdrift, the two brothers made an attempt Thursday morning to get to Breckenridge ski area, where they were rewarded with a powder day and relief from having successfully run the gantlet when thousands of others were stranded.
"We really did get lucky," Norrdin said from a chairlift as he enjoyed some exquisite snow on his skis. "Look at this - it's beautiful!"
For the few holiday travelers who could get out of the metro area's snowy gridlock, the ski areas offered a delicious holiday treat, with snowfall totals reaching more than three feet in some places around the state.
Vacationers Charlie and Joann Dawson, who arrived from upstate New York before the blizzard, learned that conditions are only as good as your most recent snowstorm: If it hasn't snowed in two weeks, the skiing won't be great even if the last accumulation was two feet.
"Sunday and Monday was like eastern skiing here. We were surprised," Charlie Dawson said of the hard-packed surface that resembled a marble floor. "Now we have some snow, which is great."
Given that ski areas on the East Coast have been struggling in an unusually warm, dry winter, the decision to come west was easy for Mel Kluhsman Jr. of Lockwood, Mo.
"We had no idea that the snow would be like it is. But I'd rather be lucky than good," said Kluhsman, who regularly skis at Waterville Valley ski area in New Hampshire.
He and his family are planning to drive back home on Saturday, but if the roads aren't cleared by then, they won't have any qualms about staying for Christmas.
"It's really good here," he said. "Everybody else is at the airport, but I'd rather be stranded here than anyplace else."
