Always something new around the corner happy, until it's detected and banned!!....A real shame people have to stoop that low to get an advantage.. and the 2 most important things that keep the industry alive i.e horses and punters are the ones that suffer in the long run! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I heard they doing trials to compare saliva and swab testing to see if they get compareable results.Apparently saliva testing a lot cheaper and supposedly just as accurate so they are hoping for good results as the possibility to save a lot of money in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
