The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission Wednesday unanimously denied Kentucky Derby-winning trainer Rick Dutrow a license to race in the state in 2011. KHRC executive director Lisa Underwood cited Dutrow's "consistent disregard for the rules of racing." The ruling will prevent Amen Hallelujah and Court Vision, both co-owned by Long Island-based IEAH Stables, from running in stakes at Keeneland Thursday and Friday. The New York State Racing and Wagering Board suspended Dutrow twice in February for drug violations. It will meet again next month to decide whether to revoke his license.
