Betting man 57 Report post Posted December 22, 2018 I believe there were a large number of dogs blood tested at Auckland recently and rumour is there will be more on Christmas Eve, just curious - what are they looking for that isn’t traceable in a urine swab? I have heard it is the only way to find EPO but I was wondering if there are other substances that require blood analysis for identification ?

Epo has been able to be picked up in the urine for years now I believe. Everything lasts longer in the blood though if that's any consolation Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never been one to just follow brainlessly along without investigating the “why” Personally I’m all for as much testing as is required to keep our industry is above board.
