IGB left with €250k bill after dog doping case
A ruling by the sport’s Independent Control Committee accepted “compelling and uncontroverted” expert evidence that one of the favourites in the 2010 €125,000 derby final was given a sedative while it was in the care of the IGB.
This evidence said there was a 99% probability that the dog was not given the substance before its trainer handed him over to officials at Shelbourne Park at 6.30pm on the evening of the race.
