Officials Outline Hisa Anti-Doping And Medication Control Program

In preparation for the launch of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority’s Anti-Doping and Medication Control Program, representatives of the organization’s Horseracing Integrity & Welfare Unit visited Laurel Park Feb. 21 to explain the program to horsemen and veterinarians.
HISA officials in late February said they expect the Federal Trade Commission to approve the AMDC Program regulations by March 27 despite ongoing litigation regarding HISA. HIWU officials have also visited other jurisdictions in advance of launch of the program.
