A horse trainer has been suspended from horse racing and fined $1500 after using a fake vaccine pass to attend a race meet. Two days later the stewards followed up and asked to see his vaccine pass, which Pertab presented on his cellphone. However, instead of presenting a fake vaccine pass he simply avoided race officials for the duration of the race meeting before getting his second vaccination and pass later.
