Trainer Jeff Mullins has been suspended seven days, beginning May 3, and fined $2,500 by the New York State Racing and Wagering Board for an incident in the Aqueduct security barn April 4. The stewards released the ruling April 19, following a telephone hearing with Mullins on April 16.
The suspension will begin one day after the Mullins-trained I Want Revenge runs in the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr.I) at Churchill Downs.
Having waived his right to appeal and the board “considering the circumstances”, according to the ruling, Mullins’ suspension was reduced from 15 to seven days.
Mullins was observed orally administrating an over-the-counter medication (Air Power)
with a dosing syringe to Gato Go Win, about 30 minutes before the 3-year-old was scheduled to run in the Bay Shore (gr.III). As a result of Mullins’ actions, Gato Go Win was scratched because the trainer was in violation of New York rules which prohibit race-day medication, except for the anti-bleeding medication, Salix, which can only be administered by a veterinarian.
Air Power is an all-natural medication that is advertised by its manufacturer to work as a cough medicine. Its label ingredients are listed as: Honey, apple cider vinegar, aloe vera, menthol, oil of eucalyptus, lemon juice, and ethyl alcohol.
