KHRC Recommends Steroid Ban July 17, 2008 A subcommittee of the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission has unanimously recommended an anabolic steroid ban in horse racing throughout the state. The recommendation, announced on July 16, would prohibit horses from racing under the influence of steroids. It closely mirrors the national model rule proposed by the Racing Medication and Testing Consortium. At least 10 states have approved the model steroid rule, though Kentucky has remained a high-profile holdout. The recommendation will now go to the Kentucky Equine Drug Research Council, which could edit the language of the proposal before sending it to the KHRC for consideration. KHRC executive director Lisa Underwood said she hopes a steroid ban will be on the agenda at the commission's next meeting on August 25. |
