New York racing regulators are considering whether to weigh an appeal by supporters of the trainer Richard Dutrow to modify his 10-year ban on applying for a license, according to officials involved in the campaign.
The appeal to reconsider the penalty could be added to the agenda of the July 16 meeting of the New York Gaming Commission, according to attorney Karen Murphy, who has been coordinating an effort to modify Dutrow’s ban, five and a half years after he began serving the penalty.
