Does Mr. Grassick think it is appropriate that those involved in buying and selling of bloodstock are also charged with overseeing the regulator in charge of anti-doping? Is that not a clear conflict of interest? In America, the new governing body will have five independent members with no association with racing and four members with an association with racing but no active links. Does Mr. Grassick accept this would be a better way to do things in Ireland? I want to make it clear I am not a horse racing man but I like horses and an odd bet now and then. I would like to know that when I am betting, I am betting on something that may win. It does not happen often but I would like it to happen.
