Positive for Lidocaine.
Thats pretty effed up-thats not like levels over the limit of lasix, blood CO2 or other drugs that are acceptable in the proper dosage.
Lidocaine-Novocaine- is what causes horses to break down on the track.
9 months that ends at the end of October?
Really?

Not surprising from what I read on here about so many in the game.
I'm old enough to remember Art and Chucky Bier at the Mighty M. They put over a lot of big prices there! LOL!

There's good and effective uses for lidocaine and Novocaine and meprevicaine that are legit and regulated.
imo, the abuse happens when blocking joints -- intra articular injections -- happens too frequently or even when it's not called for.
Blocking joints on or too close to race day is the worst abuse.
But it's harness racing where the goal is to fail as slow as possible.

Don't know much about Sean other than he can't drive a hotnail into a snowball. So, I can't see him training at a high level without some type of chemical assistance.
They blocked a joint too close to race day and got caught.
However, the crime didn't justify the time in my opinion.
