Medina Spirit’s drug test positive for steroid

Kentucky Derby win in jeopardy.

A 37 year drought of a Triple Crown winner and Baffert wins two in 4 years.

Now we know why.

2 years from now Baffert will either be done racing for good or he will have enough money lying around and ask his lawyers for a magic touch and let him appeal his ban which would not be surprising

Stricter laws or something needs to be in place so "super trainers" don't get any special privileges and get away with it which has probably happened a few times to Baffert himself I am presuming

This is years overdue. He may contest it but I think racing has had enough of him. At a critical time in the sport he has tarnished the whole sport and on a international scale with the KY. Derby.

As they say no one wins them all, like all criminals they believe they can't get caught. Considering his past deeds, 2 years seem rather light.

Finally "the dog ate my homework" and or "oh the feed was contaminated" etc. finally caught up with him by some slow learning teachers or in this case perhaps Labs or racing authorities.

Now with a ban he can't even get a job mucking stalls. Now just a fly on a wind shield. See ya and wouldn't want to be ya.


Good riddance,
