Dr. John Chancey Named Chair Of ARCI Drug Testing Standards And Practices Committee

Long time regulatory veterinarian and now Executive Director of the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission, Dr. John Chancey is the new Chair of the Drug Testing Standards and Practices Committee of the Association of Racing Commissioners International (ARCI).

Chancey replaces Duncan Patterson, the Chair of the Delaware Thoroughbred Racing Commission who will now lead the ARCI Continuing Education Committee going forward.

RCI Chair Tom Sage of Nebraska thanked Mr. Patterson for his service on the committee and to the Association: “Duncan has been a great steward for the Association, but the time has come to put a veterinarian in charge of this committee as well as someone with direct experience not limited to only thoroughbred racing.”

“With the role now being played in the US by the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority, this committee must recommend equine welfare and anti-doping policies that are applicable to all horses regardless of breed. Dr. Chancey is the right person to lead this committee,” Sage added.

For over eighty years the ARCI, through its Model Rules, has been a beacon of best practice regulatory standards. The standards are not mandatory, although most state racing commissions have implemented many if not all of the medication control and anti-doping standards. For Thoroughbred racing, HISA's rules have displaced state rules and departed from ARCI standards, although there remain some similarities.

Sage said the Association will continue to develop and advocate for those standards in all breeds as it has always done and welcomes input from all.

Beautifully Bred Bernardini Filly Airs En Route To ‘Rising Star’ Honors

Godolphin homebred Tarifa (f, 2, Bernardini–Kite Beach, by Awesome Again), possessed of a pedigree that says longer and maybe a bit later, defied both of those premises to graduate over an extended seven-furlong trip Wednesday at Keeneland, winning off by open lengths to become the newest 'TDN Rising Star' and 21st overall for her sadly departed sire.

Backed like a good thing to be off at odds of 14-5 (2.83-1) from a 6-1 morning line, the dark bay was a forward factor just in behind the early pacesetters and jockey Florent Geroux had his work cut out for him to prevent his filly from running up on heels. Given her head with about 3 1/2 furlongs to race, Tarifa continued to travel ominously well on the turn and weaved her way through a bit of traffic to be right there when the real running began at the top of the lane. She put favored Snow Dance (Commissioner) to the sword at the three-sixteenths pole and opened up at will from there to take it by a half-dozen very convincing lengths.

Godophin acquired Tarifa's second dam Tizdubai (Cee's Tizzy) for $950,000 at the Keeneland November about two months after her full-brother Tiznow recorded the second of his two consecutive victories in the 2001 GI Breeders' Cup Classic. She was also a full-sister to MGSW and Classic runner-up Budroyale.

Kite Beach, whose half-sister Fancy Day (Ire) (Shamardal) produced MGSW Cabo Spirit (Pioneerof the Nile), was purchased by M T Stable at KEENOV in 2021 and to Calumet Farm for $115,000 at the 2022 Fasig-Tipton February sale. The mare produced a full-sister to Tarifa who sold to Matthew Davis for $105,000 at this year's Fasig-Tipton Kentucky July sale and foaled a colt by Knicks Go this season. The latter's sire Paynter is by Awesome Again and out of Tizso, another full-sister to Tiznow. Kite Beach was bred to Lexitonian this year.

5th-Keeneland, $99,587, Msw, 10-25, 2yo, f, 7f, 1:28.51, ft, 6 lengths.
TARIFA, f, 2, by by Bernardini
1st Dam: Kite Beach, by Awesome Again
2nd Dam: Tizdubai, by Cee's Tizzy

HIWU Weekly Update: Pimental Withdraws Admission Of Guilt, Pro Bono Lawyer Panel In Development

The biggest news published this week by the Horseracing Integrity & Welfare Unit (HIWU), the enforcement arm of the Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority (HISA), is that trainer John Pimental has been allowed to withdraw his admission of guilt for two violations of the Anti-Doping and Medication Control Program. This cancels a previously-imposed three-year suspension and $25,000 in fines, and reverts the charges to “pending” status.

Pimental spoke to the Thoroughbred Daily News last week regarding the two violations: possession of the banned substance levothyroxine and a positive test for methamphetamine in trainee Golovkin. The 68-year-old trainer suspected that the meth positive had been triggered by environmental contamination from a drug user who came in contact with Golovkin either in the starting gate or in the test barn, and said that the levothyroxine had been used for a stable pony.

Since no hearing was held, Pimental had 30 days to seek review from an Administrative Law Judge at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) following his signing of an admission of guilt and the imposition of sanctions. This allowed HIWU to accept Pimental's withdrawal of the admission.

Pimental said he had initially signed the admission of guilt because he could not afford a lawyer, but following the TDN story's publication, Pimental reportedly began working with HISA's/HIWU's Ombudsman, Alan Foreman, at no cost. HISA CEO Lisa Lazarus wrote in a Letter to the Editor published in TDN this week that Pimental's case has prompted the development of a “Pro Bono panel of lawyers for Covered Persons who fall below a certain income threshold so that no one is deprived of counsel simply because they cannot afford a lawyer.”

“We firmly believe that no horseman should be deprived of his or her due process rights because of a lack of resources,” Lazarus wrote.

Alexa Ravit, HIWU's director of communications and outreach, told Paulick Report of the Pimental case: “The adjudication process will now restart. The rules state that a hearing should be scheduled for within 60 days of the request, which has matched our average timelines thus far.”

HIWU has also lifted the Provisional Suspensions and withdrawn the Equine Anti-Doping Charge letters from trainers Guadalupe Munoz Elizondo and Javier Morzan due to their Covered Horses testing positive for Metformin at levels in blood that should not have been reported as Adverse Analytical Findings under the ADMC's listed Limit of Detection.

As a reminder: HIWU's regulations for vet's list workouts include stricter medication restrictions than those for horses completing routine timed workouts. Horses on the veterinarian's list are required to complete a recorded work before a veterinarian and undergo post-race drug testing to be taken off the list. Horses completing routine, non-vet's list workouts are prohibited from having analgesics, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, corticosteroids, and local anesthetics in their system, but other therapeutic medications are permitted.

Last week's edition of the HIWU Weekly Update is available here, and all public disclosures can be found on the HIWU website.

New Case Resolutions

The following cases have recently been resolved by HIWU, either by admission and acceptance of consequences (AAC) or by final decision (FINAL).

Note: The accumulation of Penalty Points can lead to suspensions (6-7 points leads to a 30-day suspension).

Trainer William Cowans will pay a $3,000 fine and has been assessed 3 Penalty Points for violations of the intra-articular injection rule within seven days of a timed workout with Dream Keeper and Secretary of War on Sept. 26. The two instances were treated as one violation. (AAC)
Trainer Mark Hibdon has been fined $500 and assessed 1.5 Penalty Points over D'wild Muffin testing positive for flunixin (banamine) after winning a $4,000 claiming race at Arapahoe Park on Aug. 27. The 9-year-old mare was disqualified with purse money ordered returned. (FINAL)
Trainer Randi Persaud has been fined $500 and assessed 1.5 Penalty Points over Jumpster testing positive for phenylbutazone after a vet's list workout at Saratoga on Aug. 20. (FINAL)
