Default Mullins to quit training?????

Here is a shocker, one of his horses has tested positive for mepivacaine. Aparrently, the horse tested for 30 grams per liter and the state of Cali only allows for 10 grams per liter. The horse ran 2nd in a $40k claiming race. Mullins said the horse never has had anything other than bute or lasix under his care. He had the horse for 3 races.

Here is a link to the story in bloodhorse.

I believe that he may quit. It will be like the scene in Lost in America where Albert Brooks goes to that employment office looking for work. Mullins will go in the office and tell them that he quit his regualr job as a trainer and wants a list of the job openings that pay $1 million a year. LOL.

He's not going to quit. Where else could he make even a quarter of what he makes now?
