LEXINGTON, Ky. — An investigation by the welfare unit of horse racing's federal oversight authority accuses the equine analytical chemistry lab at the University of Kentucky of failing to comply with testing standards and misrepresenting its ability to test for specific substances. Tuesday's release of results from a six-month probe by the unit and the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority also says the university's lab did not perform confirmatory analyses of 91 samples at the direction of then-director Scott Stanley, then reported them as negative. The university's internal investigation found that Stanley reported a test result to a client when the sample had not been tested.
