As of Sept. 4, seven positives for the drug have reportedly been called by the Ohio State Racing Commission’s testing laboratory. Two other well-known trainers with gabapentin positives are Virgil Morgan Jr. (with Miso Fast on May 25) and Jim Arledge Jr. (Milford’s Z Tam on July 2). According to information gathered from several sources, the positives are not believed to be from intentional admin- istration but random contamination. The positives were supposedly called for amounts of two nanograms or less, with a nanogram a unit of measurement which indicates a mass equal to one billionth. Gabapentin is a widely used painkiller for humans. A May 2019 story in The New York Times cited that gabapentin is one of the top 10 most commonly prescribed drugs for pain in the U.S. In 2015, the Journal of Veterinary Medicine published the results of a study to determine the effects of gabapentin in treating chronically lame horses and found no significant improvement in their condition. The Association of Racing Commissioners International has classified gabapentin as a Class C drug with a Class 2 penalty. Positives can be called for even miniscule amounts of gabapentin, making it a HarnessRacing Weekend Preview “zero tolerance” drug. Burke appealed a $1,000 fine and 90-day suspension from Kathy Parker Heather Kemper [email protected] [email protected] the Ohio State Racing Commission (OSRC) after his horse Editor/ General Manager Production Manager McBoogitty tested positive for gabapentin after winning an Lynne Myers Reynolds $8,000 overnight on July 18 at Scioto Downs.
