"Kentucky also is looking at penalties for people who have in their possession "blood-gas" machines used to test for milkshakes, or shock-wave machines. Merely having a blood-gas testing device in one's possession would bring a $5,000 fine and 90-day suspension on a first offense; for a shock-wave device, the first offense would bring a $1,000 fine and 30-day suspension."

Didn't Jeff Mullins say in one of the articles when he first got the positive for the TCO2 levels that according to "his tests" the horse was not over the limits?

Looks like he must have one of those blood-gas machines, or black box as it is referred to later in the article.

In addition, last year Mullins had to remove his "shock-wave" device from the stable area per then General Manager Chris McCarron's mandate.

Talk about a poster boy...!
