Indeed Vubiant. And don't you know we are so upset at this ludicrous finding that we are considering an actual APPEAL.

Lucky it wasn't one of the Aga's!

This drugging lark is a serious skill in itself.  It amazing that they cant catch these fellas.  We all know who has their horses on the juice and those that dont, although i doubt if Philip Rothwell had his horses on it judging by their brilliant performaces Laugh

Well what do we know?

He is the trainer with probably the greatest competitive streak (as shown by his longevity) and it was clear that not winning the great European Races in the last 10 years clearly hacked him off.

He reels of his role of honour at each course whenever interviewed, without prompting. If there is something in it and others are doing it, (which they clearly are given the importation figures). It is only a natural progression.

Post race comment from DKW after latest victory:

"She´s the first filly in Ireland to win three times this season; she´s been placed well. She is a very genuine filly and the crack of the whip across the nose didn´t stop her - she showed guts and courage. She´s not a big filly but now deserves a chance at Listed level. Pat and I both had reservations about the trip; he rode her to get it" - trainer Dermot Weld.

You are the greatest DK.

Here's an interesting snippet on those very tasty before- or after-dinner beverages that one can find in the hallowed portals of the globalisation behemoth McDonalds:

There is also concern that Milkshakes have the ability to mask other drugs. In theory the administration of alkalizing drugs can affect the excretion of other drugs.

"Drugs that are of a basic nature might be excreted in lower concentrations and for a longer duration, while those that are more acidic could be excreted more rapidly. One study showed significant increases in water consumption two hours after dosing and a threefold increase in urine production for 18 hours following the administration of 250 grams of sodium bicarbonate. Sodium bicarbonate administration also will acutely increase sodium and bicarbonate output in the urine sample. This masking effect seems to be most effective for drugs such as lidocaine, procaine, and cocaine."

Great, great trainer but an even better to self-aggrandize. Probably only second to McGregor in these Isles.

Dermot Weld's wife and himself are in love with the same person.

Hell of a trainer Gotchee, but he seems to always do it. "This has been a lucky course for me", and then on he goes.

Great trainer neill but he should be handing over to one of his sons at this stage. He has nothing to prove and it can only go downhill after adding the Derby to his CV.
