Biancone in the barn

The New York Times is reporting this morning that Biancone was in the barn yesterday at Monmouth against his agreement and had to be asked to leave. Apparently, he can do whatever he wants since there are no real consequences to his actions.

ESPN said yesterday he was going to a big story this weekend.

They weren\'t kidding.

He can be at the barn and at the track until Nov. 1st according to ESPN\'s Randy Moss. He will be banned from the track for 1 year starting then.

The trainer Patrick Biancone was on the backstretch at Monmouth Park in violation of an agreement in which he transferred his seven Breeders' Cup horses to an assistant trainer. Biancone's one-year ban for violating horse racing drug rules in Kentucky will begin Nov. 1. Ahead of his suspension, he had turned over his horses to François Parisel for Friday's and Saturday's races and had said that he would not attend the Breeders' Cup. Frank Zanzuccki, executive director of the New Jersey Racing Commission, confirmed that Biancone was on the backstretch and in the barn area Thursday. "I spoke to him by telephone and reminded him of the trainer-transfer agreement," The Associated Press reported Zanzuccki as saying. "I asked him to leave the barn area and he complied."

I guess he had volunteered not to show up then did anyway-
