new doping scandal breaking 5HTP

While it is certainly unsatisfactory at best, the story says it is not currently a prohibited substance for Greyhounds.

http://greyhoundscene.proboards.com/thread/57664/grb-inquire-multiple-htp-positives

stow it knocks them sideways causing all sets of problems its bloody dangerous.

it will be made a prohibited substance and i believe prosecutions will take place.

so obvious the ones been using it tbh

my top 3 names are in the list from the graded scene

would take a lot of fun out of second guessing these thick fckers tho its the only way they can play the game it seems

no good to the dogs and so obvious do they honestly think they are clever?

can be used for dogs who suffer from car sickness but in very very small doses

on some of these trainers runners performances doubt it was a very very small doses beeb lol

and funny how on a couple of meetings every runner from the same kennel ran like "super calmed up"

One of the trainers double unlucky caught and dog won

meanwhile, over in horse racing
"A kilogram of the anabolic steroid Nitrotain was allegedly found at trainer Philip Fenton's yard, court hears"
whoops!

must be a body builder

Has there been a statement released about Chris Mosdall yet ?

no eye

ingerlish trainers don't drug or stop their dogs, that only happens in oirland ffs

the irish dont publish positives just sweep them under the carpet

true and most of them from an ingerlish trainer in oirland

5HTP IS NOT ON PROHIBITED LIST i bet you lot dont even test for it

bbc2

We have never tested for it over here except for the past few weeks when they started going back over old samples.

These published results are the tiniest tip of the iceberg. Extensively used in some kennels and basically allowing them to keep going financially.

If the GBGB put 2 and 2 together there will be $hit all over the place but I suspect they're either not capable of doing that or will sweep it under the carpet.

I'v no doubt it will be tested for going forward but how long will it be before the next tablet comes along.

they have been testing 2013 samples as a matter of interest i have used it on my pet dogs in minute quantities to cure travel sickness.the results show some racers have been given 4 times the adult human quantity.that is enough  in my opinion to have dogs crashing into rails.

i believe the trainers concerned will not be charged under prohibited substance law but perhaps under care for the dogs in their charge.one of the trainers named is transfering his license to his partner he must be expecting action.

Supplements that can be bought which turn into more red cell than white cells in the blood which gives a dog more energy and maybe stay further but is there a legal percentage of how much red cells that are allowed in a greyhounds blood system in a drug test or is this test not done on a drug test or is there no test for testing the amount of red cells in a greyhounds blood.

understand they have lots of positives but 5htp is not on the banned list.wonder what the mighty gb gb are going to do.rumours they have borrowed the igb carpet and sweep the problem away.

no one gives a fk dogs being knocked over at the PREMIER track for years nothing done ,blatant ..

dog improves a few lengths the other night stewards called

next lot were cocaine positives.

Cick bbc ,sick greedy people exploiting poor animals ,should be cruelty charges brought

"In terms of drugs in the sport, which was the central plank of the programme before it departed on a number of tangents, I think the GBGB can hold its head high."


well feck me .....


GBGB have nothing to do with it JK , didn't you realise ? that's looked after by some other committee ? 

dont mind a kennel bill but cant afford my dogs drug habbit

"In terms of drugs in the sport, which was the central plank of the programme before it departed on a number of tangents, I think the GBGB can hold its head high."

Where did he say that Irish ? was it last night ?

HTF can he possibly say that ,dogs rolling as if drunk in races followed by death

absolutely unbelievable .how is this ****g lunatic allowed air time

he said it in the RP the other day....

Case you know Mosdall said he had other trainers he could have a word with , have you any guesses as to who he was talking about ?

Yes it don't take much working out for one of them anyway ..

I cannot believe he has said that ,this a supposed intelligent man employed as a greyhound journalist
Either he has mental issues or he is getting his dick sucked by a member of the GBGB ,or both ...

gbgb have a large number up for 5htp which is a legal travel sickness drug and now cocaine positives coming down the track

you can tell a dog is on 5htp cos its motion is very loose

we just need a stool inspector,you up for it beebs

so if it runs bad we need to check its clock and its poo, gbgb need to advertise for a time and motions man, eh eh!! lol, im wasted here ,must be all the 5htp ive taken for my trip to ireland

time and motions man , im still laughing and i wrote it, how very sad think beebs right about me

believe me yorky there are no stools

this thread is as a result of the Australian greyhound authorities not keeping up with the "new" drugs on the market 2012/13
these have been imported to Ireland
they have then been put into dogs sold in the UK

only guessing .....

Took them a while to have these inquiries didn't it,why did the GBGB sit on them for so long ?

Belle Vue's turn coming up later in July.

They should make interesting reading.

At yesterday’s Disciplinary Committee Hearings the following professional trainers were sanctioned after dogs in their care tested positive for 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP).

tell  gbgb to go f,,k themselves and dont pay nows your chance to get out the game

Spot on with the timing there Miss Wales...do you work for the powers that be ? When are the next lot of positives being dealt with ?

Rumbe

In the words of a famous Spanish waiter - I know noooorthing.

It's all about budgets - when the slush fund has been spent they wheel a few more in to top it up again.

looking at the symptoms on the RP web page there are plenty of times when dogs have appeared drunk at various tracks and now we know why........

putt this ****s out of this game and then this game will rise again
