Could be just a heart attack and bad luck but we all know who the "Move'm Up Guys" are.

Excerpt:
"We have limited ability to prosecute out-of-competition testing with current regulations. ... In reality, horse racing does not have a robust anti-doping program," Arthur said. "It can be best described as a medication control program. Medication control is very important and necessary. We not only need to test for performance-enhancing drugs, as is the focus in human sport testing, but for drugs that impact horse welfare and horse and jockey safety. ... Horse racing must also deal with performance-hindering drugs that could be used to stop a horse from its best performance, which is not generally considered a problem in human sport.
Arthur continued to point out the need for out-of-competition testing because
"races are won in training," where he said doping is most effective.
