BEAULIVRE DOPED REVELATIONS BY OWNER. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.10 a.m.) BRISBANE. This Day. The owner, Mr E. C. Harnett, revealed that Beaulivre had been doped before the Doomben Newmarket Handicap. After Mr Harnett was presented with the trophy for winning the Doomben Cup on Saturday, the chairman of the Brisbane Amateur Turf Club apologised on behalf of Queensland racing men for the doping of Beaulivre. A cable from Brisbane on July 4 stated: The Doomben Newmarket Handicap favourite Beaulivre is reported to be suffering from internal trouble, and it is doubtful whether he will be able to run on Saturday. Turf authorities express the opinion that he has eaten some kind of poisonous weed while grazing. A veterinary surgeon states that the colt is in no immediate danger. Sensational rumours about doping are ridiculed. The stable attendants say Beaulivre has not been left unguarded since his arrival in Brisbane.
