Flynn takes stand in Giannelli trial

Columbus, OH — According to a Thoroughbred Daily News story, Conor Flynn, a witness at Lisa Giannelli’s horse doping trial May 2, testified that he was a former Standardbred trainer who understood the penalties for violating race-day medication rules.

“You’re not supposed to administer any drugs on race day,” Flynn, 32, told the jury on the trial’s fourth day in U.S. District Court in New York.

Flynn is testifying for the government as a cooperating witness — the second cooperator to flip and testify against Giannelli who is on trial on a charge of conspiring to misbrand and adulterate drugs. The other cooperator was Ross Cohen, also a former Standardbred trainer.
