[NY Post] Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit has tested positive for betamethasone, a corticosteroid, the horse’s trainer Bob Baffert revealed Sunday morning.
It's a metaphor for the Biden era - The win was stolen, nothing will be done about it and the media will say as one "Nothing to see here..."
Baffert called the failed post-race drug test for 21 picograms of the substance "shocking" because he says Medina Spirit has "never been treated with betamethasone."
"Yesterday I got the biggest gut-punch in racing for something I didn’t do," Baffert told reporters at Churchill Downs in Louisville. "It’s disturbing. It’s an injustice to the horse."
Medina Spirit has not yet been disqualified, Baffert said, as another sample will be tested. Baffert still plans on running Medina Spirit in next Saturday’s Preakness, the second leg of the triple crown.
Another Baffert horse, Gamine, tested positive for betamethasone after last year’s Kentucky Oaks. |
