NEW YORK — The Latest on a federal court lawsuit by an aggrieved harness-racing bettor (all times local):4:45 p.m. The lawyer for a harness-racing trainer accused in a horse doping lawsuit says if it isn’t retracted he’ll consider filing a libel suit. A suit was filed in federal court Wednesday by a bettor seeking to recoup more than $31,000 in winnings he says he was cheated out of when a doped horse won a race in New Jersey in 2016. Taylor says he’ll contact the New Jersey law office representing bettor Jeffrey Tretter, demanding that it retract the lawsuit and apologize to Bresnahan. The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in New Jersey.
