RULEDOFF FOR "DOPING"
r. L. Rogers, John Wilson and Gar
nish Punished by Jockey Club.

At meeting of the stewards of the Jockey
Club in the Windsor Arcade last night r. l..
Rogers. John Wilson and the horse Garnish were
ruled off the turf, under Rule 162. Section VI,
which provides:
Any person who shall have administered a
drug or stinulant internally or by hypodermic
method prior to a race. or who snail nave used
appliances electrical mechanical other than
the ordinary whip or spur, shall be ruled off.
This action the part of the stewards had
not been foreshadowed. although a number of
racegoers had commented the appearance of
the horse when he went to the post for his last
race at Jamaica last Tuesday 1t is plain now
that the stewards of the meeting had their eyes
open and, suspecting something wrong. had the
horse examined after the race for evidence of
doping"
Garnish is a five year. old bay horse by
Rapallo-Garniture. In his last start he won
easily from Delphie Cressina. Tommy Waddel
and three others. 1t the same race in which
Radtke, the jockey; was suspended for the meet
ing and his case referred to the Jockey Club
for suspicious looking ride Tommy Waddell.
r. L. Rogers is the owner of Garnish.
If the stewards of the Jockey Club, at the
meeting last night, discussed the Radtke case
no report of it was made, and in all probability
the subject was laid on the table for future
action.
