He just gets more passes bc he’s the media darling.
He gets passes because the media never picks up the story. This one is big on a national media level. I am not sure I can recall a time when so many major media outlets reported something like this a major breaking news. Things are different in 2021 when the court of public opinion chooses to cancel you they will. This is way more mainstream than any horse doping in recent memory. Navarro and Servis was more horse racing news not a story on CNN/ESPN/NY Times etc. it may be tough to come back from this. This was the intent of the horse racing reform act and I think they want to make an example of him. He *may* be *actually* fricked this time

God I wish he’d retire. Or get caught with something outside racing like kiddie porn so he’d for once face some consequences.

The court of public opinion doesn't just show up on sunday morning. Somebody decided it was his time.

Only if you have asthma or are sick... it will not help healthy lungs that have no inflammation. A one mile race would not cause inflammation imo where this medication would help anyone unless you have a pre-existing condition.

Hey Aspercel,
I met J.J. Pletcher about 30 years ago at LA Downs. What do you think of his son, Todd? Is he a good guy?

Baffert whining on "The Dan Patrick Show" that Churchill Downs's reaction was "a cancel-culture-type" statement.

He’s just upset that this story got big enough and horse racing is under enough scrutiny these days that he can’t just walk away from this one.

And he’s doubling down folks.
KSR story on Baffert’s excuse this time
quote:
According to Rick Bozich, Baffert said one test issue was created by a groom. Baffert claims the groom urinated in the stall after taking cough medicine. Medina Spirit then ate some of the contaminated hay, leading to the positive test.

I don't follow horse racing at all but this is all I need to know that this guy is a shithead.

This reminds me of Brock Lesnar trying to blame a positive PED test on a foot ointment he was using

There have been some hilarious doping excuses, but this is a true gem
