ORC Licensees: closely review all memos from the CPMA

In recent months, the Canadian Pari-Mutuel Agency (CPMA) has released a number of memos to Provincial Regulatory bodies and the Canadian horse racing industry. These include:

July 8 - CPMA Statement on Positive Tests

Aug 21 - CPMA Update On Ractopamine

Aug 25 - New Clenbuterol Rules Now In Effect

September 1 – Clarification - Ractopamine

Copies of these CPMA memos are attached to this Notice.

The Ontario Racing Commission (ORC) issues this Notice as a service. ORC licensees are expected to know the Rules of Racing, closely review all memos from the CPMA, and keep up to date on the Schedule of Prohibited Drugs.
