Please can the NPS ensure that the dope testing undertaken at Olympia checks for Ritalin and other ADHD medications.
Thanks

Overbent sounds as though she has Overdosed!  Seriously though, previous threads have suggested that at least one of this year's exhibitors may have tried the stuff on their ponies so maybe it would be a good idea. If everyone is inocent then let the vets confirm it. Making fun of a sensible idea could well be a sign of guilt? |

OMG........have heard it all now.Our foster son is on Ritalin and its certainly not a drug to be taken lightly.Has huge side affects.All patients taking it have to be closely monitored by a doctor.Can not see anyone in their right mind giving it to horses and not knowing what could happen.................SICK  |

Apparently it does happen- there was a case involving the use of it on ponies in the Horse and Hound some time ago, correct me if I am wrong as I don't recall all the details!

Perhaps people should pass this on to the NPS and make sure that the horses are checked for the substance!! After all im sure not every pony will have a clean slate  |

Please tell us why we should only report this to the NPS?  |

have to be vigilante at olympia guys, spot the pony totally on the job with jockey climbing a flagpole. Well I thought this comment was sooo funny, I am liking your sence of humour. Why do people make these silly post and not have the guts to put their names to them? |
