Horse Racing? "We're here to collect an out-of-competition no-notice urine sample in order to test for THG." "Oh, okay. From which one?" "The name on my order is Syringe Daddy." "Yeh, he's here. Stall 23." "Thanks." "Hey Jake, I've never been on horse detail before, just humans. I take it we can't just give them a cup and ask them to pee in it." "Right Elwood. The USADA portable kit includes an inflatable horse catheter. According to the training video, one of us gets the animal's attention with soothing admonitions like 'Hey there big guy, I hear you're a stud!', and 'Had any good oats lately?' In the meantime, the other of us sneaks behind the animal to attach the catheter. "Sounds dangerous Jake. What happens after that?" "The kit includes an electronic stimulus device Elwood. In the training video they attach it right behind the catheter, in an area that is rather sensitive, as you can imagine." "I should say so!" "Both of us stand back, and after yelling "clear", an electrical current is applied via the hand-held remote control. Guaranteed to produce at least 2 liters of good quality lab-testable urine." "Here he is Jake- Stall 23". "Alright I'll stand in front while you attach the catheter. 'Hi there Syringe Daddy, had any good oats lately?' " horse- "Is that you Wilbur?"...... ........................."WILBURRRRRRRRRR!!!!"
