Maryland Race Commission Hearings On Stimulation Charges
Maryland Racing Commission summoned two more thoroughbred trainers for hearings on stimulant charges as the Maryland Horsemen group says the commission is overzealous and could ruin Maryland racing. Tests showed stimulants in Brann horses New Challenge and Weathercock and in One Only. A hearing for Clay Sutphin was continued. The Maryland Horsemen’s Protective Association urged the rule be changed from conclusive to prima facie evidence. Other tests cited morphine in Shako. Tomorrow’s attendees include Pilate’s Dream and Bully Gusher trainers. Prior hearings have produced suspensions and life bans for other trainers.
