Werent there a couple of stablehands charged from All Stars for using drugs around horses earlier this year? Sounds like the rumours of it being rife in the code are actually true. 

Torch,there was the incident re the float trip to The jewels where drug use by stablehands was revealed and horses pre race tested. Not sure if they were charged but know they dont work for AS anymore if indeed they ever did.

I hate to say it but this doesnt look good on the industry, Everyone under investigation are at the top.

This is quoted from that stuff article:

"Stuff understands the 26-year-old is Matt Anderson, who is widely regarded as one of harness racing's brightest young prospects.

Four men aged 34, 40, 41 and 44 were due to appear in Christchurch District Court on Tuesday next week on match-fixing charges. Stuff understands the men are Nigel McGrath, John Dunn, Blair Orange and Andrew Stuart.

A 41-year-old woman would appear in court the same day on two counts of supplying Class B drugs. Stuff understands she is champion driver Natalie Rasmussen.

A 47-year-old man, who Stuff understands is Brent Wall, 47, has been charged with deception by match-fixing and is due to appear in Palmerston North District Court, also on Tuesday, police said."

Disappointing. How many owners (who cough up big money every week to have their horse trained) are really going to believe anything they are told from now on? If proven guilty then you'd have to think this is the end of the road in the industry for those involved. No way you could ever take the game seriously again if they all ended up in the same race somewhere down the track.

Agreed, methinks there is a lot more to come on this whole matter. Also,whilst certain charges may be being laid no one has yet been proven guilty.

Not necessarily especially those only accused of drug dealing, depending on the amount sold. David Butt spent time in prison for drug dealing and he regained his driving and training licenses.

Drug offenses for recreational or whatever use no, I agreed. That's a personal issue but if proven guilty for race fixing then life ban is really the only conclusion you could come to for preserving what is left of the sports reputation.

Race fixing a different matter I agree... lifetime bans definitely.

That's all I referred to you as and you confirm it. Hardly warrants your irrational response but I can understand you are having a bad day.
