Ontario Commission Suspends Standardbred Trainer Beaton Over Misconduct Allegation

To safeguard the integrity of horse racing and to prioritize the well-being and safety of racehorses, the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has suspended Anthony Beaton, a standardbred trainer, for conduct prejudicial to the best interest of racing effective as of October 13, 2023.

After receiving complaints, the AGCO's ongoing inspection revealed that Mr. Beaton engaged in conduct prejudicial to the best interest of racing when he used repeated force that caused injury to a horse, thereby compromising equine safety and welfare.

A licensed horse racing participant issued a Ruling under the Rules of Racing has the right to appeal the AGCO's action to the Horse Racing Appeal Panel (HRAP) which is an independent adjudicative body mandated to hear appeals of decisions.

A number of horses trained by Beaton that were entered at Woodbine Mohawk's OSS Super Finals on Friday and Saturday were scratched.

Street Sense Colt Stretches Out Successfully at Keeneland

3rd-Keeneland, $109,550, Alw (NW1X), Opt. Clm ($100,000), 10-14, 2yo, 1 1/16m, 1:46.34, ft, 5 3/4 lengths.
STRETCH RIDE (c, 2, Street Sense–Q Go Girl {SP}, by Quality Road) handled his first two-turn attempt with aplomb, drawing away to win clear Saturday at Keeneland. Off at 9-1 having graduated with a late-running victory over six furlongs at Churchill Downs Sept. 17, the bay colt took up a position from between rivals as Astronomico (Frosted) set a quick early pace at the fence while odds-on Lightline (City of Light) was trapped out three deep through a half in :47.56. Stretch Ride was allowed to nose in front by Martin Chuan at the three-eighths marker and was scrubbed along, but was doing the better work inside of the chalk, who was doing his best to keep pace. Despite hanging on his incorrect lead for the length of the short stretch, Stretch Ride went away with each stride and had 5 3/4 lengths on Lightline–a big-figure debut winner at Horseshoe Indianapolis–at the wire. Seize the Grey (Arrogate), a latest fourth in the GIII Iroquois S., plugged on at one pace to be a non-threatening third. Purchased for just $5,000 at last year's Fasig-Tipton October sale, Stretch Ride made for a nice profit when hammering for €100,000 at this year's Arqana May breeze-up sale. Jackpot Ranch acquired Stretch Ride's dam for $147,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Horses of Racing Age sale in 2019 a short time after she finished third in the Panthers S. at Prairie Meadows. Stretch Ride is her first foal and is followed by a weanling colt by Yaupon. She was most recently covered by Street Sense's Grade I-winning son Speaker's Corner. oftlineSales history: $5,000 Ylg '22 FTKOCT; €100,000 2yo '23 ARQMAY. Lifetime Record: 2-2-0-0, $135,495.

#5 STRETCH RIDE ($21.32) pulls away from the favorite #6 Lightline in the stretch to win race 3 at Keeneland. The 2yo son of Street Sense is now 2 for 2 in his young career. Martin Chuan was in the irons for Dale Romans.
