RE: [RC] Drug Testing - Alison Farrin

Nope, I'm in California and we were tested at Coso - running 20
something.  Lady said she was picking any horse that looked like it
might want to pee~

Subject: [RC] Drug Testing


Reports on rides that have been drug tested appear in Endurance News on
a 
regular basis.  The State of California drug tests a lot of rides there,

they are at almost every ride I've been to in California.  In
California, 
it is LEGAL to have 2 grams of bute in your horse.  The drug testing
lady 
told me one time that so long as the results do not exceed what is legal
in 
the state of California, that they would not be reported to the 
AERC.  California does not have a zero drug policy.  The last ride I was
at 
that was drug tested by AERC was Steph's Owyhee ride.  As a rider, I
feel 
that the current drug policy is totally worthless.  From what I have
seen 
at any testing AERC has done, they only test the top ten horses by a
random 
drawing.  So anybody knows they only have to finish in 11th place or 
farther back to avoid being tested, and the riders do know this.
