The entire out of competition testing thing is a red herring as there are very few things that would have value on raceday that are given 40 days out. Perhaps blood doping but pretty much nothing else.

The thing is that the vast majority of positives are called on normal medications at minute levels. You cant do out of competition testing on things that are legal to give.
Thank you!
