In as much as any drugging scandal will have to come from the FEI, and the UAE own the FEI, it's highly unlikely that you will hear about anything substantial, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the vast sums of money being spent on research in the Gulf are only on exercise and diet....

    I have to agree with Nik. I am just blown away at the time. And it

    Incredible. It really has to be in their training program. Unless
    somewhere along the way we'll hear about a drug scandal al la US
    baseball. I hope they have high beams to signal that they are
    passing me on the left as I go about my 6.5 mph in the slow lane!
