The 2023 Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Santa Anita Park earlier this month have been a topic of discussion for many racing enthusiasts. This year marked the first time the event was run under the full jurisdiction of the Horseracing Integrity & Welfare Unit (HIWU) and the Anti-Doping and Medication Control (ADMC) Program. The authority, which took effect in May of this year, was implemented and enforced by HIWU. The post-race test samples taken from contenders in the 2023 Breeders’ Cup have now been cleared by the organization, offering reassurance to the racing community and upholding the integrity of the sport.
Under the rules of the ADMC Program, medication was prohibited within 48 hours of the 14 Championship races and the undercard. Additionally, potential Breeders’ Cup competitors were subject to out-of-competition testing for banned substances. These measures were put in place to ensure that the races remained fair and free from any undesired advantages. The clearance of the post-race samples by HIWU confirms that the protocols put into place were effective in maintaining the purity of the event.
The implementation of the ADMC Program in the Breeders’ Cup World Championships under the jurisdiction of HISA has signified a significant step towards ensuring the welfare and integrity of horse racing. By working alongside HIWU, the event has demonstrated a commitment to upholding the highest standards of transparency and fairness. This move is a positive development for the sport, reinforcing the importance of ethical practices and the well-being of the horses and participants.
With the post-race samples now cleared by HIWU, the 2023 Breeders’ Cup World Championships have wrapped up on a positive note. The reassurance provided by the clearance of these samples serves as a testament to the commitment of the organization to maintaining the integrity of the races. Moving forward, it is clear that the implementation of the ADMC Program has set a precedent for future events, ensuring that the highest standards of safety and fairness are always upheld in the world of horse racing.
