California Horse Racing Board To Expand Posting Of Alleged Medication Violations

The California Horse Racing Board has expanded the posting of complaints on its website for alleged medication violations to include Class 4 and Class 5 violations.

The CHRB has been posting complaints for the more serious Class 1, 2, and 3 violations, which require disqualifications and forfeiture of purses. However, with the increased emphasis on all medication violations in horse racing, the CHRB has elected to add Class 4 and Class 5 complaints as well. The complaints stem from all drug testing, including alleged violations during racing, training, and from out-of-competition testing.

To view complaints filed by the CHRB, go to the website (www.chrb.ca.gov) and click on the tab for Administrative Actions, then select Complaints from the drop-down menu.

Be aware that complaints are filed for alleged violations prior to hearing. The cases have not been adjudicated at the time they are posted.

Pursuant to a new statute, potential medication violations will be posted on the CHRB website beginning January 1, 2021, with the identification of all drug positives once the split sample is confirmed or even earlier if the licensee declines to request split-sample testing. Those positives will be posted before any complaints are issued.

Marlhill House Stud Starts New Website

A new website was launched by Marlhill House Stud on Wednesday. The site will be a comprehensive platform for buyers to learn about Marlhill House Stud yearlings in advance of the sales, including photos, conformation videos and pedigree information. To view the 10 Marlhill yearlings, split evenly between Tattersalls October Book 1 and Goffs Orby, go to www.marlhillhousestud.com.

“We have done our best to move with the times this year by bringing ourselves online with a new website and greater use of social media,” said Marlhill House Stud Manager Brian McConnon. “We hope that it might give those who are unable to attend the sales due to COVID-19, as much opportunity as possible to look at our yearlings. We are particularly excited about our group of horses heading to the sales this year and hope that our website will help to showcase them to the best of our ability.”
