Jockey R Khathi suspended

It has obviously been used for weight loss.
It does not come across as any kind of performance enhancing drug.

I'm sure i' not the only person to wonder why there a 9 page long Banned substance list for Jockeys.

I agree I know jack shit when it come to riding horses and Jockeys but surely what performance enhancing drug that the jockey takes allows the horse to run faster.? is there any difference between a jockey on steriods compared to a cyclist or a NFL play on roids. (other than the shruken testicle side effect of roids.)

Would you be happy if your horse lost because a jockey was pished or high ?

What if when pished or high , or less aware of what he was doing and caused a fatal accident ?

Plus some drugs can be used as masking agents, for harder drugs, like Lasix can hide coke

Cane can hide coke.....()
