fricking shame. I had the 2nd 3rd and 4th horses in exactas and trifectas. Bob’s cheating cost me a ton because Medina blew up my bets.

I had a great day yesterday after starting to hear the rumblings. Where’s everybody who just called me a sore loser. The whole running of the race was suspect too.

I bet the split sample goes “missing”. Nothing will happen. He’s a media darling.

Justify shouldn’t have even made it to the derby starting fate but his positive in the Santa Anita derby was kept quiet until it was too late.

The problem with the justify positive due to “contamination” is that the track already set a precedent for actual contamination I think the year before. They admitted it was not on purpose and still dqed the horses and fined the trainers. As usual, baffert got special treatment

W/ Lasix restricted, had to do something different. Drug he was popped for is an Asthma steroid. He had a horse popped for the same thing a day earlier in the Oaks race.

He needs a lifetime ban from the sport
It’s known he’s been charting for years

remember, when Doug O'neil was in the limelight, they tried to make him look like a dirt bag juicer.

Bob has a ton of positives and they treat him like royalty

It’s an anti-inflammatory like you would get at your doctors office not an anabolic steroid fwi

No, it isn’t an anabolic steroid but it is used for asthma, so it would help the horse’s breathing. That is cheating

It was the oaks in September

I bet this is what he gave concert tour then held him out of the derby.

Masking pain is a big issue. Like his lidocaine positives from nerve blocking in Arkansas last year to pass the jog then blaming a person’s pain patch

I wasn’t defending him, the 2nd test could be negative... just saying some people think it’s a juicing steroid
