The Ohio State Racing Commission (OSRC) heard an update on the status of the cobalt study being conducted by the OSCR, The Ohio State University (OSU) College of Veterinary Medicine, and the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s Analytical Toxicology Laboratory (ATL), at its monthly meeting on Aug. 25.

James Robertson, DVM, OSRC consulting veterinarian, offered comments and insight on the OSRC-funded cobalt research.

“The Ohio State University has acquired five Standardbred horses for the pilot study and they are currently in a routine quarantine,” he said. “Once that is completed, the study will begin and take about eight weeks to complete.”
