FILE – In this March 6, 2017, file photo, Dallas Seavey, four-time Iditarod winner and reigning champion, is aiming for his fifth Iditarod crown in six years. Seavey took off wearing bib #18 at the start of the 45th Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in Fairbanks, Alaska. Four-time Iditarod champion Seavey denies he administered banned drugs to his dogs in this year’s race, and has withdrawn from the 2018 race in protest. The Iditarod Trail Committee on Monday, Oct. 23, 2017, identified Seavey as the musher who had four dogs test positive for a banned opioid pain reliever after finishing the race last March in Nome.
