Viagra use on the rise in all sports including horse racing
2008-06-11 14:23:00
It wasn't so long ago that the only person in sports who wanted to publicly discuss Viagra was Rafael Palmeiro — and Pfizer had to pay the slugger a reported $500,000 to pitch its product. But the little blue thrill pill became the talk of the sports world Tuesday after the New York Daily News reported that Roger Clemens and other athletes have turned Vitamin V into one of the hottest drugs in locker rooms. The World Anti-Doping Agency is trying to determine if Viagra can be used to cheat in the Olympics. Major League Baseball and the National Football League will also try to determine if the erectile-dysfunction drug aids training and improves performance. Bodybuilders, weightlifters and other athletes have turned to Viagra because they believe it helps dilate blood vessels and delivers oxygen, nutrients and steroids to various muscle groups more efficiently. Other athletes use Viagra to treat impotence — a side effect of steroid abuse. Jocks who participate in aerobic...

Horse Racing in LiteratureArticle provided by TRP Services and SmartFindsMarketing.comHorse racing, the second most-popular spectator sport in America, remains as vital as ever, but its age, high drama, and historical appeal as the "sport of kings" ensure that it also has a place in the history of literature. Countless writers have been drawn, in their search for subject matter, to the romance of the racetrack - the triumph and tragedy of equestrian life. It'd take the endurance of a draft-horse to compile a complete list of such novels - ex-thoroughbred-horse-racer-tur-ned-mystery writer Dick Francis alone has written a small library of them - but here are some of the more important. National VelvetA classic of childrens' literature, this 1935 novel by Enid Bagnold tells the story of Velvet Brown, a working-class English teenager who unexpectedly realizes her dream of keeping and racing thoroughbred horses when a mysterious old man leaves her a racing horse in his will. A memorabl...

Horse racing’s future?
2008-05-18 19:07:00
Mark Beech at the end of a longish bit at si.com notes the same thing I did within hours of the death of Eight Belles: And so racing will probably only have three more weeks to admire its newest superstar. And after he is gone, the game will still have to deal with the problems that the death of Eight Belles put squarely in the spotlight: the weakening of the thoroughbred breed through inbreeding, the use of performance enhancing substances and the dilemma presented by the presence of synthetic racing surfaces. Outcry or no, these problems will not go away in a month or a year or five years. Indeed. As Beech notes, there’s a mess of money involved here: Hours before the race, IEAH Stables, the outfit that owns Big Brown, sold his syndication rights to Three Chimneys Farm. Robert Clay, who runs the Lexington, Ky., breeding operation wouldn’t divulge the terms of the deal, but speculation at the track was that it was for around $50 million. With all that money on the line,...
