Bute positives from 3 years ago!

[Kirbys Ace]

What's with all the bute positives at the Meadowland's from like 3 years ago? Appeals? So, the purse money has been tied up till now? Any info?

It's absolutely incredible. It's like a Who's Who of harness racing. At the high end vets make all the risk assessments with medications ... how could they get it so wrong? Was there an allowable threshold that got reduced to zero?

Looks like Joseph A. Deer, Esquire, has been a busy man.  Must use a refer a friend discount

New Jersey changed the cutoff from 24 hours to 48 and didn’t bother to tell anybody. These trainers all won their appeal in the real courts and the NJRC decided not to recognize the ruling

Pure bullshit.  Just like the Charlie May fiasco.  Fuck New Jersey.  Build a mile track in New York.

NY already has a 7/8's mile track it's called Vernon Downs, was a 3/4 with a chute. Jeff Gural. had some nice stake races years ago. Can't draw flies anymore. Not just about the size, Lol.  Syracuse was a great time, when it was at the fair and when it was a short meet,and some fantastic miles, Niatross and American Winner to name a couple. shitty track. No more racing. No fair racing at the Erie County Fair. Look at the plans for Yonkers, maybe I missed the track in all the renderings. It's sinking and a mile track in NY won't help

If anyone wonders whats wrong with harness racing all they have ti do is look at the fines and suspensions listed on usta sitetoday….

2 years or more in finally settling the positives ??  Looks like the big boys are all going on a cruise together at a time they demand ,,,,,,   

Total BS !!!

[Brown jug]

nothing here
bute is used regularly
apparently they changed the withdraw time and didnt tell anyone
not all those trainers would fuck up on the same thing that is that easy to monitor

Burkes was on lidocaine
