Trainer Jeffrey Englehart began serving a 10-day suspension Monday after Phenylbutazone, or Bute, was discovered in a post-race sample of one of his starters.

The Daily Racing Form reports that the medication was discovered in a sample from Runningwscissors after he finished third in the Say Florida Sandy Stakes at Aqueduct on Jan. 9.

Englehart was also fined $1,000, according to the report, and Runningwscissors was disqualified from third and ordered unplaced. Englehart, who owns the 5-year-old gelding, also had to forfeit $12,000 in purse money earned.
