Kentucky Derby Doping

Forums:

Medina Spirit tested dirty. If a conformation test has the same findings he will be disqualified.

If that happens the winning purse must be returned.

Those who bet on Medina Spirit do not have to return the money. Those who bet on the horses who came in 2n, 3rd or 4th do not get any extra money.

I bet on Essential Quality, the favorite, to come in 3rd but lost my bet as he was declared 4rd which was out of the money. I will not be compensated.

While my loss was stinging it was not nearly as bad as the "Mattress Mack" of Houston losing bet of 2.4 million on Essential Quality.

If the horse is disqualified the trainer Bob Baffert will be suspended from Churchill Downs. I do not know how long such a suspension would last.

 

Baffert released the test results to get ahead of this story. I'd like to see who he tries to pin this on.

Anyone but him.

When are the results of the second test known? I feel for the jockey if he wasn't part of it.

 

How are you doing, Crabneesh? Other than the Derby, I mean.

I am getting along as well as can be. Thank you & Happy Mother's day to all.

If this 2nd test is positive Mr. Baffert's reputation  will be ruined & the question will be have any of his other horses been doped.

I think this sucks, I would have cashed a exacta and a triple if the dirty horse hadn't won. I cashed one ticket on the horse that came in 3rd, sob!

Wow Denny those winnings would have been substantial, especially that triple. 

Had my horse been declared 3rd I probably would have doubled up $500 to a grand. Thank God I didn't bet the rent.

My wife bet Medina Spirit to win & won. But not enough to cover my bet.

Tough luck Crab.   Miss you big guy. 

Baffert should get shit banned from the Derby. He thinks he's running this horse in the preckness.

Your wife cashed a good tix, that is cool. For some reason I hung on to the losers and didn't toss them

I miss you too Mark.

Now they are saying Baffert has  a history of doped horses. Way to go Bobby.

Was on Twitter earlier and saw a clip of him on Fox News this morning saying his horse is a victim of cancel culture. 

I'm not joking. He really said that. 

that fucker is the roger stone of the equine world

Local news saying 'he's the Barry Bonds of horse racing' lol

Medina Spirit ran in the Preakness & came in 3rd but with clean pre-race tests.

New York state has just banned Medina Spirit & trainer Bob Baffert from racing in their state for the summer so he will not be running in the Belmont.

This was Baffert's horses 5th dirty test in just over a year. While it is true that Baffert trains a lot of horses none are allowed to be dirty.

Can I still smoke dope during the Derby?

Medina Spirit's confirmatory test was returned  positive. The owner is contesting the results. How long will Bob Baffert be banned from the Derby?

it was just released that Baffert is suspended from Churchill Downs for 2 years.

>>>Can I still smoke dope during the Derby?

Yes, just don't be upwind of the horses.

 

And the winner is Mandaloun.

Well the horse I bet to show, Essential Quality,  is now 3rd.but still no ducats for me.
