Sec. 2.1.

(a) No quarter horse participating in a race shall carry in its body clenbuterol. A finding by the chemist or commission designee that clenbuterol is present in the test sample shall be prima facie evidence that clenbuterol was administered and carried in the body of the horse while participating in a race. Such a finding shall also be taken as prima facie evidence that the trainer and his or her agents responsible for the care or custody of the horse have been negligent in the handling or care of the horse.

(b) Upon a finding of a violation of this section, whether by pre-race testing or post-race testing, the owners or lessees of the horse from which the sample was obtained shall forfeit any purse money and any trophy or award resulting from the associated race. If the purse money, trophy, or award is associated with a qualifying race, a positive test for clenbuterol shall render the horse ineligible for any subsequent related race.

(c) In the event a sample from a quarter horse results in a finding of clenbuterol, the quarter horse shall be placed on the veterinarian's list as provided in 71 IAC 8.5-8-1.5.
