If there is a split good chance of that year decomposing that sample.  So the original is tossed or decomposing and the split is worthless too. More corruption

I'm starting to think you don't know anything.

Additional Details:
New Jersey Racing Commission (NJRC) licensee Per Engblom was the programmed trainer of the horse "Mon Amour" when he raced in the 6th race at the Meadowlands Racetrack on April 29, 2023 and finished in first place.
Following this race, "Mon Amour" was selected to submit post-race blood and urine samples for analysis. A report from Industrial Laboratories identified the presence of Oxycodone, Carisprodol and Meprobamate, a metabolite of Carisprodol.
At Mr. Engblom's request, split sample testing was performed at Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Diagnostic Laboratory, which is an approved independent laboratory.
These testing results did confirm the presence of Oxycodone, Carisprodol and its metabolite Meprobamate.
This is in direct violation of the rules and regulations of the New Jersey Racing Commission. An adminsitrative hearing was conducted on December 6, 2023 in the Judges office at the Meadowlands Racetrack to accept evidence and testimony regarding this matter.

As a trainer licensed by the NJRC, Mr. Engblom is the absolute insurer of and responsible for the condition of a horse within his care and custody and shall not enter or start a horse that has in its body any drug or substance foreign to the natural horse. As a result of the evidence and testimony presented at the administrative hearing held on December 6, 2023 regarding the post-race positive test from the horse "Mon Amour" for the drug Oxycodone on April 29, 2023, Mr. Engblom is hereby issued a full suspension of his NJRC license for a period of one year (365 days). Said suspension shall begin on March 15, 2024 and run through March 14, 2025 inclusive.

Where did you find this?

Was it intentionally redacted from the USTA listing?

If you disagree with the decomposition of a sample over time. I already know you know nothing. Go read a book and come back later.

It wasn't a stakes race involving a potential stallion with the right connections, so it probably wasn't redacted. The USTA has to receive the info from the state authorities. Likely the state posted too late to be picked up on this weeks FAS.

You don't get forever to ask for a split sample, there's actually rules in PA that the split has to be sent out within 15 days. If they were gonna bury a positive, the trainer requests the split and then the judges don't send it out. Then it's like the positive never happened.

It’s listed in pathway though for some reason the USTA didn’t include it in the fines and suspensions list they release every Friday.

So now the USless TA wants us to pay to find out who has been a bad boy and who has people in higher places.

Gural is in a pretty big quagmire. First he says that no one who gets caught drugging can’t race at the M. Then he stops being totally consistent. Now there are so many bigger trainers getting caught he is facing short fields for lack of horses. Pretty soon there won’t be anyone allowed to race there unless Gural softens his stance. What a Catch 22 this industry is facing.

I think I read where he weighs each case separately. We will see where that goes.  Many were surprised when he suspended Jen B

I am not sure what contractually and with whom may cause him to continue racing. If he is not encumbered to stay racing legally, he should just shut it down. Yes, the stables can go race for welfare $$$ in NY or Pa, but there will be uncoupling sooner or later at the welfare tracks and all these guys can go fade into the sunset.

Trainers may change but the horses will be there , with or without beards

Where do you come up with these statements? His horse had MULTIPLE ILLEGAL drugs in its system LAST year to boot, and because he is a nice guy that makes it OK? Do you think the horse thinks PER is a nice guy? Cheats do NOT deserve anything except fines and sanctions! Unreal what you wrote.
