Triggered by broad media discussion in the U.S.A. and spurred by the climate both within and outside our industry, which calls for heightened attention to equine welfare, the Board of Directors of the H.B.P.A. of Ontario have passed the following motion:

“The H.B.P.A. of Ontario is supportive of stopping the abuse of the medication clenbuterol and requests that the CPMA and AGCO take immediate action thereupon.

We feel that all owners and trainers deserve a level playing field and that bettors have the right to rely on the fairness of the races upon which they choose to wager.

The H.B.P.A. of Ontario is committed to work with industry members, racetrack partners and regulators to identify and stop any abuse of our equine athletes. Please know that, in this current environment, it is of utmost importance that we all work together for the common good of our horses and our industry.”
