Drugs that were used could increase red blood cell count, increase stamina and endurance, relieve pain and reduce joint inflammation, according to the indictment."What actually happened to the horses amounted to nothing less than abuse," Sweeney said."They experienced cardiac issues, overexertion leading to leg fractures, increased risk of injury and, in some cases, death.
