A Victorian trainer has been issued with three charges by Stewards including one of race day treatment.
Russell Green trains Overton Onyx which was withdrawn from a race at Wangaratta on April 6 following a stable visit by the Compliance Assurance Team.
Green has been charged with breaching AR178E(1) which deals with race day treatment.
Racing Victoria Stewards allege Green administered, or caused to be administered, a solution containing an unknown quantity of green amino drench, BLUD powder and water via a 60ml oral dosing syringe on race day prior to a race.
Green has also been charged under AR178(g), Stewards alleging the trainer gave false and/or misleading evidence in respect of the solution located during the stable inspection on April 6.
The charges will be heard before the Racing Appeals and Disciplinary Board on a date to be fixed.
