Title: "Say what you will about the ten commandments, you must always come back to the pleasant fact that there are only ten of them

Steroids were banned starting Oct 2008. In the Breeder's Cup the European horses cleaned up. Curlin who won the Breeder's Cup Classic in 2007 was the odds on favorite - he didn't even finish in the money with the first two spots going to European. When asked why the Europeans did so well - a commentator from Great Briton stated  that Steroids were no longer used in the US.

Interesting.  I had no idea that steroids were "ok" before now.  I knew there's been a history of using steroids in TB's, Secretariat was supposedly on steroids for quite a long time.

 

At least this is a little bit of a change in the right direction.
