DENIAL OF LICENSE
The Commission concludes that Respondent`s experience, character and general fitness
are such that Respondent`s participation in racing or related activities would be inconsistent
with the public interest, convenience and/or necessity or with the best interests of racing
generally, and therefore refuses to issue Respondent the license for which Respondent
applied, pursuant to Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law§ 309(2) and 9
NYCRR § 4119.7(b). THEREFORE, based upon the entire record (including, without
limitation, the evidence specifically relied upon by the Hearing Officer), the Report, and the
findings and conclusions adopted by the Commission, it is hereby ORDERED, that
Respondent`s application for a license as an owner-driver-trainer in harness racing is
refused, pursuant to Racing, Pari-Mutuel Wagering and Breeding Law § 309(2) and 9
NYCRR § 4119.7(b)

You are correct. Unfortunately it says NYC. So I guess he’s allowed license in other states except New York.  Stupid rules. I believe if your suspended in the USTA trotting association. Then it should be every state in United States  so if your banned in New York you can’t race anywhere…. That’s my opinion

He also drove Friday night at meadowlands 2nd race. But business as usual. Suspension in harness racing is meaningless anymore. Shame.

This race was disgusting.  I actually bet a superfecta this race boxed 8,10,3,2  I thought I had a chance to make a few bucks.   This was no doubt a fixed race by the drivers.  I watched the replay a few times.  Callahan with the 1 moves over to make a big hole in the middle.  Clark who has been denied a license was whipping the shit out of his horse (#10) ..this asshole should be banned everywhere like Rawlings.  fucking horse abuser.    Driver of the 8 (Callaghan) was looking over his shoulder.   And Geo Nap #3 (the favorite) pulled back the reins and stiffed to finish out of the superfecta.  USTA should suspend and fine all of these turd brains.  And Clark Jr needs to go away PERMANENTLY

And this is why harness racing is dying.

Your imagination runs wild, yes?

   Conduct detrimental to the best interest of horse racing

Additional Details:
A hearing was held in The Meadowlands Judges Office on Wednesday, April 9, 2025 to investigate the conduct of driver William Clark, Jr. during the first race at The Meadowlands Racetrack on March 28, 2025. Mr. Clark participated in the hearing via telephone. As a result, the Board of Judges has issued Mr. Clark a ninety (90) day Driving Suspension and one thousand dollar ($1,000.00) fine. The Driving Suspension shall commence on April 11, 2025 and run through July 9, 2025, inclusive. In the opinion of the judges, Mr. Clark acted to the detriment of racing and violated several New Jersey Racing Commission Rules. Mr. Clark exhibited poor judgment during the race, and by putting both lines in one hand to turn around and shout at a fellow driver while still in the stretch, he acted in an unprofessional manner and put both himself and others in an unsafe situation. At the completion of the Driving Suspension, Mr. Clark`s New Jersey Racing Commission license will be under Probationary status for the remainder of 2025. In addition to the penalty issued in this ruling, prior to his license being restored to an active status, Mr. Clark must also comply with the conditions set forth in a confidential letter to him dated April 25, 2025. Mr. Clark`s actions are in violation of N.J.A.C. Rule 13:71-1.19, N.J.A.C. Rule 13:71-7.29 (a) 6, 9, 13, N.J.A.C. Rule 13:71-20.10 (b), N.J.A.C. Rule 13:71-20.13, N.J.A.C. Rule 13:71-20.15 (c) 1. The fine associated with this ruling must be received by the New Jersey Racing Commission on or before July 9, 2025

Suspension in NJ ended in July.
