Great stuff. The DRF used to print this but no longer does.

I wonder why not?

Anybody got any data on how that horse ran that day????

[Figman]

Oct. 5th - 4th race at Bel - ESSAYONS finished second beaten 5 1/2 lengths by the 6/5 favorite STRIVE ridden by Jerry Bailey.

The share of the purse for ESSAYONS for finishing 2nd was $10,000 which was redistributed. And of course there was the fine on top of the purse loss.

Ruling Text: RULING: PRESENT AND PROVIDING TESTIMONY WAS MR. ROBERT RIDER, TRAINER FOR THE BOB RIDER KENNEL. THE HEARING WAS SET TO REVIEW A POSITIVE TEST FOR METHOCARBAMOL, SAMPLE #170286, RETURNED ON THE GREYHOUND, SARGEANT RED. IN THE INVESTIGATIVE HEARING CONDUCTED BY THE BOARD OF STEWARDS, MR. RIDER ADMITTED TO HAVING METHOCARBAMOL IN HIS KENNEL. MR. RIDER STATED THAT THE METHOCARBAMOL WAS PRESCRIBED FOR THE GREYHOUND CAPTAIN KOS, AND COULD HAVE BEEN INADVERTENTLY ADMINISTERED TO SARGEANT RED. MR. RIDER FURTHER STATED THAT THE GREYHOUND SARGEANT RED WAS GIVEN A DAILY DOSAGE OF MAGNESIUM CALCIUM (MEGACAL) FOR LOW MAGNESIUM LEVELS, AND THAT THE MEGACAL CAPLET HAS AN APPEARANCE QUITE SIMILAR TO THE METHOCARBAMOL CAPLET. MR. RIDER RECALLS BEING ABSENT FROM THE KENNEL ON THE MONDAY AND TUESDAY PRIOR TO THE POSITIVE TEST OCCURRING, AND STATED THAT HIS KENNEL HELPERS COULD HAVE ADMINISTERED THE METHOCARBAMOL CAPLET IN PLACE OF THE MEGACAL CAPLET. THE BOARD TAKES INTO CONSIDERATION THE SIMILAR APPEARANCE OF THE TWO MEDICATIONS; HOWEVER, THAT DOES NOT NEGATE THE FACT THAT SARGEANT RED TESTED POSITIVE FOR METHOCARBAMOL. PURSUANT TO 491--7.5(99D) 7.5(1), “A TRAINER SHALL PREVENT THE ADMINISTRATION OF ANY DRUG, MEDICATION, OR OTHER PROHIBITED SUBSTANCE THAT MAY CAUSE A VIOLATION OF COMMISSION RULES. THE TRAINER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONDITION OF A GREYHOUND ENTERED IN AN OFFICIAL RACE AND, IN THE ABSENCE OF SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE TO THE CONTRARY, IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRESENCE OF ANY PROHIBITED DRUG, MEDICATION, OR OTHER SUBSTANCE, REGARDLESS OF THE ACTS OF THIRD PARTIES. A POSITIVE TEST FOR A PROHIBITED DRUG, MEDICATION, OR SUBSTANCE, AS REPORTED BY A COMMISSION-APPROVED LABORATORY, IS PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE OF A VIOLATION OF THIS RULE OR IOWA CODE CHAPTER 99D.” THE FINDING THAT THE GREYHOUND SARGEANT RED WAS IMPROPERLY DRUGGED OR NUMBED BY METHOCARBAMOL IS PRIMA FACIE EVIDENCE OF THE FACT THE GREYHOUND WAS IMPROPERLY DRUGGED OR NUMBED. THUS, THE BOARD FINDS THAT MR. RIDER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRESENCE OF THE PROHIBITED DRUG METHOCARBAMOL IN THE GREYHOUND SARGEANT RED, REGARDLESS OF THE ACTS OF THIRD PARTIES. THEREFORE, THE BOARD IMPOSES AN ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTY OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, ($100.00) AS A RESULT OF A POSITIVE TEST FOR METHOCARBAMOL, SAMPLE #170286, RETURNED ON THE GREYHOUND, “SARGEANT RED”, WHO FINISHED SEVENTH PLACE IN THE FIFTH RACE ON WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2004, MATINEE PERFORMANCE.

DJ,
I wonder whether Mr. Rider's charge needed a little hair-of-the-man the next morn.
