Dr. Lynn Hillyer:

It is the rules of racing. Trainers sign up to the rules of racing and agree to be bound by them. That gives the Turf Club a certain authority to act. It does not give us authorities as extensive as, for example, colleagues who are authorised officers. An example is powers of seize and search. If I were to see a bottle of stanozolol, which is an anabolic steroid, in a trainer's yard, I would not currently have the power to seize it.
