Horse In Iowa Was Stripped Of Win After Testing Positive For Meth

Sounds like this horse is fun at parties. Drag Malibu was drug tested shortly after winning the third race of the day on May 29th at Prairie Meadows and the test was positive - for METH...

"The horse had trace amounts of methamphetamine in his body when the horse ran in the race," said Brian Ohorilko, administrator of the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission.

Ohorilko added that they see positive drug tests a handful of times in the year, but a horse testing positive for meth is nearly unheard of.

The Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission found the groom, the person who handles the horse before and after the race, tested positive for meth himself.

Subsequently, the trace amounts on his hands resulted in Drag Malibu testing positive for meth.

"The groom had put a tongue tie on the horse and it's very reasonable to assume based on the level of methamphetamine detected, that's probably how the horse tested positive," Ohorilko said.
