... that Martin Pipe's training methods for steeplechasers were so effective, he was twice investigated for cheating?
Source: https://www.racingpost.com/news/how-revolutionary-trainer-martin-pipe-changed-the-racing-landscape-forever/431358 "ITV made a programme in its Cook Report strand that basically accused Pipe of every dodgy practice short of witchcraft, and although there was no foundation to the insinuations they wounded Pipe deeply."
https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2006/oct/03/horseracing.comment1 "Yet Pipe was such a radical outsider that he was accused repeatedly of caring more about winning than the welfare of his horses. In a dramatic dawn raid in February 2002, the Jockey Club took a series of blood samples from his yard. All the tests were negative."

Article is new, long enough and neutral. It is sourced with inline citations. "Earwig's Copyvio Detector" reports moderate rate of text similarities, commenting "copyvio unlikely" . The hook is well-formatted and interesting. Its length is within limit. Its fact is accurate with inline citations. QPQ was done. Good to go. CeeGee 12:57, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
