Rockit Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 If bloods or hair samples are taken off dogs at a race meeting, should this be recorded in a stipe report? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sickof it Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 No mention of blood tests from Friday night.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yankiwi Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 (edited) Addington seems to be in general the only track to have syringes for taking blood swabs. You see blood tests coming from there rather regularly. Any other track & it's quite rare. 3 weeks ago... https://www.grnz.co.nz/catch-the-action/13674/stewards-report.aspx I reckon any time a dog is called for a swab & it fails to provide a sample, or there's a question as to who came into contact with the dog after a race, then the answer to those instances should be an immediate blood swab. We've all seen the "failed to void" pop up every now & then, so why does it end there? Blood and/or hair are other options! Happy owner/connections after the big race already know how to avoid the normal swab procedure by making excessive contact with there charge at the podium. It's been documented more than once.
