Returning to the 2010 issue of the derby, that particular dog was under the control of Bord na gCon at that stage and for that period on the track. The dog was got at in some way and the board must accept that because it would not be paying otherwise. It must accept that some substance was given to the dog to make sure he came in last. Something happened to the dog while it was under the board's control.
