The following attracted a negligence charge and a $100 fine in early 1970. "The swab taken from Lyn's Rambler after the brilliant sprinter failed at Harold Park on 4 January proved to be positive to caffeine. My Jim House, Lyn's Rambler's owner-trainer was fined $100 on a negligence charge and Mr Jim Carr Chief Steward at Harold Park issued an edict that Mr House was to be the only person in future permitted to place Lyn's Rambler into the starting boxes. This followed Mr House's statement that he had taken ill just before Lyn's Ramber's race and that his son Brian had handled the dog on 4 January. Brian said that the bitch was nervy and a one man greyhound and had become upset when he handled her. He told the stewards that he gave her a headache powder to settle her down and felt that this could have caused the caffeine finding". Honestly, how much would such an offence attract these days and where, when and how did he give the headache powder to the bitch, in the kennel block I suppose just before heading out to parade up the long straight to the 500 yard starting boxes.
