NEW YORK -- Smarty Jones' jockey Stewart Elliott was fined again for submitting an inaccurate riders' application, this time by the New York State Racing and Wagering Board.

Elliott was fined $500 Wednesday for "making false statements in relation to his license application," the board said in a statement.

The fine will not affect Elliott's riding status for the June 5 Belmont Stakes, when the jockey will climb aboard the Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner and attempt to win the Triple Crown.

Elliott was fined $1,000 two weeks ago by the Kentucky Horse Racing Authority. The time frame of Elliott submitting the inaccurate New York application wasn't made clear.

The jockey pleaded guilty to assault three years ago following a fight with a friend, but he didn't disclose the information when applying for a license to ride at Churchill Downs. One of eight questions on the form asks if the applicant was arrested, indicted or convicted, or pleaded guilty to any criminal offense within the last 10 years. Elliott checked "no."

Mickey Sample, the chief state steward for the Kentucky racing authority, and two associate stewards determined Elliott was guilty of "falsification, misrepresentation or omission of required information."
