Dr. Colm Gaynor:

There is of course, the period before when dogs were registered in the registry of the stud book but which under the rule should not have been so registered. Those dogs are in the register. As they are in the register they are entitled to race and cannot be stopped racing. There is a difficult situation because there are people with legitimate expectations and dogs that are bred from them. That is something we will have to look at when we know where we are going with the science of it and what we can do to resolve that time period to which I referred. It is not easy.
