Rider protection as more contamination confirmed

GOVERNING bodies are taking steps to protect riders as more equestrian feed companies have been affected by contamination by the banned substance zilpaterol.

France Galop announced on 2 October that an investigation had been launched after five horses tested positive for the substance, with the “common denominator” pointing to products marketed under Gain Equine Nutrition (news 8 October). Last week, the British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) confirmed some of its members’ products had also been affected. Zilpaterol is used as a feed additive in the US and other countries to promote weight gain, mainly in cattle. It is not approved for use in Europe.
