So,since it has no therapeutic value for a horse and is barred from being on the racing grounds.Mr.B should be looking at a LONG vacation.It will be interesting to see this outcome.

troubling:

The next possible step would be a hearing before the racing authority, after which the case could go into the court system, meaning resolution could be months, if not years, away.

Well,this is where the tracks themselves should be stepping in.They banned all these jockeys this spring with no proof presented,yet Mr.B{and other trainers} is/are caught red handed with a banned substance and continue on.Double sided if you ask me.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, and what kind of penalty he gets, and if criminal charges are pressed like in the Saratoga Harness case.

Theres no doubt about him having too many chances. Hes not getting a lasix overage, hes injecting snake venom, who knows what else he does. The guy needs to be in prison

I don't expect anywhere near the same result, although I could be wrong. The Saratoga harness case involved several people, a conspiracy or collusive effort to tamper with the outcome of a specific race, and was the result of an ongoing "sting" operation and investigation (where they had wire taps, telephone conversations, purchasing of the drugs, etc.).

Agreed, but what will his defense be?

Maybe...


"Do you know how successful I am? Don't you think its possible people are out to get me?"

I know we have heard that one before...

Maybe they just keep the venom on hand incase someone gets bit by a cobra at Turfway. Then they can quickly come up with an antidote to counteract the bite of a Kentucky Cobra

How about trainers who get positives have to endure a dose of whatever crap they're putting in these horses?

Eye for an eye.

I have heard the Kentucky Cobra can be as deadly as the Adirondack Barking Spider...
