RE: [RC] Sheik banned but competing? - Kristen A Fisherhttp://www.horseandhound.co.uk/news/397/287270.html It was a "private" ride...

You know I'm bored to be reading this stuff but these two announcements came side by side... *********************** August 04. 2009 Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, will not be allowed to compete in International Equestrian Federation (FEI) endurance horse races until October 3 after an inquiry – the results of which were made public yesterday – confirmed one of his horses had been given banned substances. He removed himself from events in April after his lawyers said horses at the Emaar Stables in Dubai had revealed traces of banned substances. The horse was found to have traces of two banned drugs in its system. They were Guanabenz, a drug used to manage hypertension in humans, with a calming and pain relieving effect on animals, and, the anabolic steroid 16-b Hydroxy-Stanozolol, used by Ben Johnson at the 1988 Seoul Olympics *************************** Wed, Aug 05, 2009 11:57 AM Euston Park, Norfolk: His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, clinched the top spot in the 120-km Euston Park Endurance ride on Monday. *************************** So, why is this guy still competing? Second, a question about the hypertension drug. Since we all know it's just not logical that as soon as they get sold to the UAE horses suddenly can gallop a high speeds then walk into a vet check and be down in 1 minute, is this drug being present evidence of how they're pulling it off? Why else would it bein a horse's system? Angie ____________________________________________________________ Snoring Signs, Symptoms & Treatments.
