It’s officially a new day when it comes to determining if medications given to racehorses are proper or not. New and enhanced anti-doping regulations took effect Monday at tracks all across the country. Lisa Lazarus is CEO of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority, and she said one of the many facets of the new program is a paperless sample collection system.
“The horse is sampled. There’s a sort of standardized test kit across the country now. So, it’s the same shipping procedures, storing procedures at every track in the country,” said Lazarus.
