Thornton Kristian Rhein, a suspended veterinarian formerly based at Belmont Park, on Tuesday changed his plea to guilty on one felony count within the federal government's sprawling prosecution of an allegedly years-long conspiracy to dope racehorses.

"I, along with Jason Servis, concealed the administration of Jason Servis | Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia SGF-1000 and clenbuterol from the owners by billing for other services and dispensables to avoid scrutiny by the owners," Rhein said during an Aug. 3 teleconference before Judge Mary IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Kay Vyskocil of United States District Court (Southern District of New York).

She said she only wanted horses purportedly hopped up to confirm whether Rhein was by drugs that Rhein's practice "freely and voluntarily agreeing" provided. that prosecutors were For perspective, that massive presenting $26 million as the earnings figure represents half proper amount of Servis's purse the $52 million in purses that winnings.

As part of his plea agreement, Rhein also has to forfeit to the U.S. the criminally gained proceeds that are directly traceable to his offense, which he agreed totaled $1,021,800. Vyskocil said he must pay at least $671,800 of that amount before his sentencing date in four months. Rhein also agreed to pay $729,716 in restitution to an undisclosed list of other victims. Mortazavi said prosecutors will file with the court an under-seal list of exactly who those victims are at the time of Rhein's sentencing. As she has asked other defendants to do when they have changed their guilty pleas in her court, Vyskocil asked Rhein to detail exactly what he did to constitute his crimes. "From at least in or about December 2016 through at least in or about March 2020, in the Southern District of New York and elsewhere, I marketed and distributed in interstate commerce misbranded and adulterated drugs to trainers and veterinarians of Thoroughbred racehorses," Rhein said. Rhein added that this was "an effort to assist those trainers and veterinarians to improve the performances of racehorses through the administration of such misbranded and adulterated drugs while avoiding detection of that scheme by federal and state drug regulators." At a later point in the hearing, when Vyskocil asked Rhein if he understood how his professional standing as a veterinarian would play a role in his sentencing, Rhein admitted that he did. "Because I was a veterinarian, I am held to a much higher standard as a professional, and I betrayed that trust to the people [who owned] not only the horses that I was taking care of, but also to all the people that listened to me and know me and trust in my professional opinion," Rhein said. "When you did all of what you described to me," Vyskocil asked, "did you know that what you were doing was wrong?" "Yes, your honor," Rhein replied. "And did you know at the time that what you were doing was illegal?" Vyskocil asked. At that point Rhein paused and said he needed to confer with his attorney before answering. After a brief off-camera pause, Rhein replied, "Yes, your honor, I did." Rhein began his veterinary career in 2002 and soon specialized in racehorse treatment. He started a practice at Belmont Park in 2015. In 2017, he partnered to form a bloodstock services company, Empire Thoroughbreds. Rhein is now the fifth of 28 defendants to plead guilty to charges in the federal government's prosecution of an alleged "corrupt scheme" to manufacture, mislabel, rebrand, distribute, and administer PEDs to racehorses all across America and in international races. Indictments were unsealed to coincide with a flurry of coordinated arrests nationwide on Mar. 9, 2020. Cont. p5 OSCAR PER FO RMA NCE

Last year, Kentucky Downs carded $90,000 MSW races, but that money represented a 30% cut from 2019 because of lost-revenue circumstances related to the pandemic. Bill Landes III, the chairman of the KTDF's advisory committee, who represents the Kentucky Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association (KTOB), asked fellow advisory committee member Rick Hiles, the president of the Kentucky Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association, if he was okay with such Steve Asmussen is nearing the record for most-ever wins by a a high purse value for Kentucky Downs horses winning a first North American-based trainer as he closes in on Dale Baird's career race. mark of 9,445 wins.

Hiles added that he has relayed that sentiment to Nicholson in Tuesday's results: Steve Asmussen moved closer to Dale Baird=s the past and will do so again when they discuss the issue in the record with a win in the second at Louisiana Downs, where his near future.
