HISA announced the provisional suspension of trainer Angel Quiroz after the agency disclosed that two of his horses that ran Aug. 9 - Scootaloo and Tepeyac - tested positive for albuterol.
The trainer at the center of the Fair Hill Five betting scandal has been suspended after two of his horses tested positive for a banned substance. Angel Quiroz, the trainer, faces charges of violating two HISA rules - compromising the welfare of covered horses for competitive or commercial gain, and administering controlled medication outside of a valid veterinarian-client-patient relationship.
The positive tests were administered following the Aug. 9 races, with Scootaloo testing positive following a race at Saratoga and Tepeyac testing positive following a race at Fair Hill Training Center in Maryland.
