The post-race test disclosed over twice the legal limit of betamethasone and antiinflamatory steroid. The reserve sample will now be tested and a consistent result will DQ the winner. The trainer Bob Baffert has been suspended by Churchill Downs. He's suggesting someone drugged his horse!! Baffert, a big time trainer with a history of big wins also has a history of positive drug tests.
My brother, employed in the race industry (track and trainers)for 30 plus years did not like Baffert. Sitting in my living room with him watching a triple crown race the screen settled on Baffert. The brother let out an oath. I asked why and he said Baffert was dirty. I asked for details and he refused.
Assuming the test holds up and the horse is DQed as the Kentucky Derby winner Baffert will still likely ride out the storm.

Baffert's Leaking Credibility Reaches Saturation Point
Bob Baffert is facing the most damaging drug positive of his career—and, arguably, in the history of horse racing.
