Aga Khan Pulls (0-Horse Stable Out Of Britain

LONDON - The Aga Khan said he is pulling his 90-horse stable out of Britain, charging that inadequate scientific procedures led to the recent drug-related disqualification of one of his fillies.

Aga Khan, one of the world's leading horse breeders, presented five experts at a news conference to back his claim that the disqualification of 1989 English Oaks winner Aliysa was improper.

``Until I'm satisfied that proper administration of science is taking place, I cannot afford to continue racing in Britain,'' he said.

The Jockey Club, which oversees British horse racing, last month disqualified Aliysa more than a year after a drug test indicated the presence of the banned substance camphor. It was the first time the winner of an English thoroughbred classic race had been stripped of victory because of doping.

But the Aga Khan and his panel of scientists said the material found in Aliysa's urine sample, 3-Hydroxycamphor, could have come from sources other than camphor - including carrots, wood shavings in the horse's bedding or products such as shampoo.

The Jockey Club said it would conduct an internal examination of the Aliysa case but expressed its support for the Newmarket lab.
