GBGB NOTICE FOR TRAINERS

Veterinary Surgeons: Reducing the risk of race day positive samples GBGB is concerned with the increasing number of positive samples resulting from cross- contamination, the use of unlicensed veterinary products, an over use of supplements, and the exposure of greyhounds to recreational drugs. The following advice should be closely followed to minimise the risk of contamination and exposing greyhounds to prohibited substances. Guidelines for the Responsible Use of Medicines form part of the GBGB Rules of Racing (Rules 214 – 217) and trainers and staff should make themselves familiar with these rules. It is equally important that any veterinary surgeon prescribing medication to a greyhound is also familiar with Rule 216 (Treatment Book) and 217 (Administration of medicaments to Greyhounds). ‘Cross contamination’ risk can be reduced by recognising what might contain a prohibited substance and adopting a common-sense approach to controlling your dogs’ exposure to it. Smoking, eating or drinking near greyhounds can expose them to prohibited substances such as caffeine or theobromine. Human use of medication can cause a problem – trainers need to make their staff aware of how easily residues can be transferred and should take appropriate steps, such as wearing gloves when feeding or handling dogs if they are taking medication. The use of inhalers such as salbutamol, salmeterol, formoterol and vilanterol to treat asthma or lung conditions, should not be used around greyhounds as aerosolised medication increases the risk of cross contamination . Where dogs are medicated, extra care should be taken to prevent crossover of medicines between dogs kenneled together. Medicines must be stored and used in accordance with VMD (Veterinary Medicines Directorate) and GBGB Guidelines and their use must be recorded as per Rule 216; See: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/veterinary-medicines-guidance-notes- vmgns#using-medicines http://www.gbgb.org.uk/uploads/pdf/Trainers’%20Guide%20to%20Medication%20 Control%20in%20Greyhounds%202014.pdf Use of recreational drugs by staff can cause similar problems. The GBGB take all findings of drugs of abuse very seriously. Trainers should take precautions to avoid any exposure and the government has provided useful advice: http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg91.pdf Withdrawal Time – the GBGB Rules of Racing (Rule 217) imposes Strict Liability on Trainers to ensure that “all greyhounds are free of any substance or medication that could affect its performance or well-being the origin of which cannot be traced to normal and ordinary feeding” when they are presented to race or trial. The exceptions to the Rule are approved medicinal products for the suppression of oestrus, vaccines and anti-parasitic drugs licensed for use in dogs by the VMD and substances included in the GBGB list of Permitted Treatments. The Rules specify a minimum mandatory 7-day period between administration of medicine and a race or trial. Certain medicines may persist for longer such as some long acting or depot preparations and veterinary advice should be sought if these are prescribed for use. Specifically, Continued overleaf

CALENDAR 1 meloxicam may persist for up to 25 days and should be avoided in dogs intended to race or trial within this timeframe. Supplements can be an unintentional source of a prohibited substance. Care should be taken in their use – a significant proportion are not subject to quality control and the composition of their contents cannot always be relied upon. If multiple supplements are given, their ingredients can add up to exceed ‘threshold’ levels of substances normally found in the body, because these elevated levels then become prohibited. Human and equine supplements and herbal products are not recommended for use in dogs as their safety cannot be guaranteed. Use of any unlicensed veterinary product is illegal, as is use of human medicines in animals, without a veterinary prescription, and not permitted under the Rules of Racing regardless of the claims made on the product. Internet availability of these products is putting trainers at risk because accurate advice is not usually available; your veterinary surgeon can advise on what is licensed for use in greyhounds in the UK and what is not. As with supplements, use of many unlicensed products increases risk of a ‘positive’ because they are very often not subject to quality control. Only medicines licensed by the VMD for use in dogs may be used, and if any other medicines are used they must be used only under the prescription of a veterinary surgeon. Day of race administration of, or exposure to, a prohibited substance is not permissible under the Rules of Racing and will increase the risk of a race day ‘positive’. Elective testing is an option if you have a concern about a specific substance in a specific greyhound which is entered to run. You can contact GBGB for advice on 020 7822 0900 or visit GBGB’s website (www.gbgb.org.uk) for further details.

The GBGB wishes to thank the Irish Horseracing Regulatory Board for their support and collaboration in providing International Harmonisation of Doping and Medication Advice.

JOHANNA BEUMER MBE

We were very sad to hear of the passing of Johanna Beumer MBE on Sunday. Johanna was an owner at Walthamstow for many years. Although she never had a great lot of success on the track as an owner, it was off the track that she emerged as a champion. A champion on behalf of retired greyhounds looking for their forever home. She often took greyhounds home herself to get them accustomed to their different environments, before they moved on to their new abode. She was a wonderful ambassador for the sport and the breed, and was eventually awarded the MBE in 2007 for her re- homing efforts. Finding a new home didn’t just end there though. She took the trouble to send a Christmas card to all the greyhounds she ever found a new home for. That in itself, gives an indication of what a truly wonderful and remarkable person she was. Her name will always be synonymous with retired greyhounds.
