Drugs Task Force

The Drugs Task Force set up by Horse Racing Ireland will meet on Monday and hopes to publish its report in the next two months. It was set up in response to the threat to the industry posed by anabolic steroids. The 14-member committee is chaired by Meta Osborne and includes representatives of the owners, trainers, breeders, sales companies and the stud book authority. It also has nominees from the Turf Club and HRI.
