Horses use horse tranquillisers. But they tend not to enhance performance.

If Russian athletes trained with Jamaican athletes would they also be innocent?

Only if they "sponsored" Seb Coe to be an ambassador

Seb all over TV today saying he knew nothing about Diack's corruption until this week; so why didn't he speak out at the beginning of the week, instead of staying silent until forced to say something?
And am I wrong in remembering allegations against Diack and his son as far back as April 2014, albeit about other forms of corruption? How did Coe manage not to hear about this until this week, when it was in all the papers for the last 18 months?
Daffodil.

And that's why he's softening up the public and the athletics world while Richard McLaren (co-author) is talking the report up.
This has just appeared in the Grauniad.

The headline is really just speculation if you read the article, but it does lay out some detail. Personally I think they'll bottle it.

I wonder how Lord Coe of JustDoIt will manage to gloss over the extent to which he castigated the media when the story first broke, and now stands up for the scientists who he rubbished?

Then again, I wonder whether the media will remember Coe's attack on them and the damage it was doing to athletic's reputation - they'll have enough of an ongoing story with the report. It was an incredibly inept reaction to doping problems at the time and a good journalist could roast him but they'll all be following the latest story, which Coe has got behind.

Perhaps Lord C should have a little trip to Aigle and chat to plain Mr C, find out how another sport are tackling their problems. Roger Black on TV today, hilarious, claiming athletics do more than any other sport to combat doping. They may do more tests, then they have lots of competitors, so the percentage might be lower, and some interesting governing bodies. Plus all kinds of sponsor and financial interests. I'm all in favour of WADA doing the lot, NGBs not involved, results published, sanctions by independent panels with no reason to cover up the cheats, in all sport.
