RE: [RC] claming agents that won't test positive, know any? - Alison Farrin
From Rule 13. Endurance equines must
compete entirely on their natural ability. AERC prohibits from competition
equines who contain evidence of the administration of abnormal substances or of
normal substances in abnormal amounts
Most
herbal essences are small concentrations of plants normally occurring in a
pasture. Therefore they do not meet the test of an "abnormal substance"
nor do they meet the test of a "normal substance in an abnormal amount". Looks
like a permitted substance to me, until and unless you fed several bottles of it
at once and exceed a normal amount.
How
are you interpreting the rule to get "a substance not expressly
permitted"?

There have been many discussions of the AERC drug
rule on ridecamp. The consensus has always been: "If a substance is not
expressly permitted (like regumate) it is banned" This is very different
than "If a substance is not banned it is permitted"
If members want the list of permitted substances
expanded they should change the rule. I didn't write the rule, I
just follow the rule.
