Olympics Doping: Don't Forget About The Other 'Athletes'

Equestrian Doping and sports will forever go hand-in-hand as some athletes will try anything that would give them an edge over their competitors.

With the Olympic Games being the second largest sporting event of all, next to the World Cup, it's no surprise that dopers are consistently outed, with the latest being a cyclist, a gymnast, and even a shooter (someone needs to explain that one to me).

Today, it is revealed that not even athletes of the four-legged kind are immune. Four horses have been disqualified from competing in their events after testing positive for a banned substance.

If the horses can speak in defense of themselves, they can rightly say that they have no knowledge of what was given to them by their trainers.
