Guerrero avoids active suspension after HIWU testosterone ruling

J. Guadalupe Guerrero, a trainer at Parx Racing, has been fined $5,000 following two violations of testosterone regulations, but will not face an active ban. The Horseracing Integrity and Welfare Unit (HIWU) determined that the testosterone found in hair samples from two horses under Guerrero's care was likely due to inadvertent transfer from a testosterone gel he uses for a medical condition. HIWU backdated Guerrero's ineligibility period effectively to September 15, 2025, aligning with the last sample collection., one charge was withdrawn concerning another horse due to insufficient evidence of exposure to the substance. Silver City Kitty's result in a September race has been disqualified due to the violation.
