RICK DUTROW: SECOND CHANCE APPEAL
 

Frankly I have mixed feelings about this petition.



I believe this thread deserves the attention of all of us as handicappers,
Owners and Breeders, I happen to fall in all of these categories;


Trainer Dale Romans started this Petition to the NYS Gaming Commission (which was formally known as the New York State Racing and Wagering Board):

In 2010, the racing stewards at Aqueduct racetrack imposed a 90-day suspension of Rick’s license for two alleged infractions, one of which was for a level of a therapeutic medication that is permissible today. Rick appealed that suspension to the New York State Racing and Wagering Board. The Board chose to make Rick an example at the time and in 2011 imposed a punishment of unprecedented severity – they REVOKED Rick’s training license for 10 years and fined him $50,000!

You need to look around the board more before you start threads. This was discussed already on here, in a lengthy thread, over a month ago:
