WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. – Unable to legally bring a supplement into the U.S. to make their horses more resilient, a Venezuelan polo team used another way to get ready for a champion match: Have a pharmacy mix up the concoction.

What happened next, though, was disastrous. The chemicals were mixed wrong, and 21 horses given the brew died in rapid succession

LOL, they used to give horses arsenic and strycnine and such in Sweden some 80 years ago before races.  :zoinks:

strycnine is  a real upper in small amounts but people differ and some die.  Sometimes sold as acid but it gives you bad mussel soreness the next day
