New Zealand trainer Geoff Small's appeal against a two-year ban in Australia has been adjourned until next month.
The Racing Appeals Tribunal is hearing Small's appeal against a Harness Racing New South Wales ban for administering tranexamic acid to star pacer Changeover. Tranexamic acid is used to try to prevent bleeding attacks.
The appeal continues Small's regular brushes with officialdom on both sides of the Tasman.
He is also contesting a charge in Victoria after his horse, Zenad, returned a positive test to the anti-bleeding drug aminocaproic acid.
He was found guilty of two charges by New Zealand's Judicial Control Authority this week, following the late scratching of All Tiger at Addington last month.
