Canada loses last bid to get showjumping team to Tokyo Olympics

Horsetalk.co.nz © Mike Bain A ruling by the Court of Arbitration for Sport has sunk the prospects of Canada competing in the team showjumping competition at the Tokyo Olympics. Canada’s fourth placing in team showjumping at the 2019 Pan American Games had qualified the team for Tokyo. However, team member Nicole Walker was later found to have committed an anti-doping rule violation after a sample provided by her during the event was found to contain the prohibited substance benzoylecgonine, which is a metabolite of cocaine. Walker’s explanation was that she had unknowingly ingested coca tea at breakfast during the Peru event on August 7, which led to her positive test result.
