This is very funny in a sick way, is there a better poster child then Mullins for all that is wrong in racing, from this idiotic episode to the bettors are idiots comment (which many people on the backstretch believe IMO).

For attempting to break the rules he should get a long suspension. While people's call for blood for fairly innocuous substances in minute levels found in post race tests are often misguided, intentionally attempting to break the rules should be dealt with harshly. Regardless of how useless the substance in question is. And Air Power is pretty useless in the grand scheme. The guy is a bad guy and he deserves whatever he gets. And his owners better realize that they are part of the problem too. This guy should get a 5 year suspension. Or worse.

Security barns cant stop the mullet
haircut. Sampson-like qualities.
The effect on the frontal lobe
may contraindicate the use of
the mullet.

The pure bravado displayed
sneaking a syringe in... good lord.

Wonder if criminal charges can be filed? The intent was there but the crime never occured, at least on this occasion.
