Mullins/Gato Go Win SCR story emerging

[geeker2]

They must have cameras in the detention barn right?

youtube baby !!!

[outofthebox]

I remember on a hot Saratoga day, being told by security that i could not be drinking Gatorade in the detention barn. No problem. But what about that coke machine selling all kinds of pop over there, he didn't have an answer for that

As an upside it was great to get to Aqueduct on Saturday after so many years and making the trip with one of my favorite people and seeing so many folks I don't always get to see and got to witness some pretty good racing I had a great time.

Despite the shroud over IEAH they do have talent for acquiring several graded
winners in a short time. There seems to be the semblance of good team work hear. We will see.

If the whole game goes to hell I'll move my tack to the QVC Network and produce the weekly "spanks" hours. Then we'll see how long it takes me to go bad.

Good times indeed. The Big A is one of my favorite tracks. I am very curious about this situation. I imagine that they could have prevented IWR from running.
Sale agreement says Lanzman call the shots on who trains the colt unless he runs off the board in several consecutive races. Now I wonder if the puplic outcry will force a change and if Dutrow (another beauty) will have him by week's end?

Oh, what time is the Spanx hour?

How does a major track setup a detenion barn and then allow a trainer in there?

How does that happen , how did he even get in there? Where was security?

[Kasept]

Trainers are allowed in the detention barn. As are the assistants and/or grooms that stay with the horse the whole 6 hours. The horses aren't in solitary confinement. Horses get walked, etc.

steve - this is defeating the purpose , can't nyra have it's own in house people walk these horse around for the 7 hrs

No one s/b allowed in the detention barn from the connections , its defeating the purposes or at the very least can't NYRA put a screener in place just like at the airport - how mullins is able to get in there with what he had is just a disater

And when said horse flips over... does NYRA want the lawsuit? Heck no...

[randallscott35]

Mullins simply missed the "No Syringes" sign on the way into the detention barn. No biggie.

fine have a gurad strip search any trainer / groom that has to go in the DB

don't tell me nyra can't do that or afford that , we do it at all the airports in this country

[dellinger63]

NYRA should put casino styled cameras in (pretty damn cheap these days) and put the feed online. Suspicious activities could be flagged and tapes could be reviewed. If they can spot someone switching dice or palming cards they can spot a syringe. Of course this will NEVER happen.

NYRA doesn't employ grooms and or horsemen, just security to oversee everything. I sure wouldn't be handing my horse to some stranger and saying "I'll see you in the paddock for the G1 race in 6 hours..." They do check bags and boxes and totes etc that are brought in. Everyone from hotwalkers to trainers are supposed to be checked. A metal dosing syringe easily fits in the pocket of a jacket and since it was cold, no one would think a fairly heavy coat was odd. Not sure why they failed to check his pockets though.

i saw that there was a rumor that he had brought the syringe in inside his coat-that the owners were pretty ticked off when they heard that was how he brought it into the det barn; mullins of course denies it, saying the syringe was in the pail with his other stuff. of course, he's always the most honest of fellows. i'm sure he's shocked anyone would doubt him.
