Bob Bastarrrrrrd should be in jail for animal abuse.
Medina Spirit was a beautiful magestic horse that should never have been drugged like that. All that abuse and the trainer got 90 days. Speaks volumes for the whole industry. He should be in prison. The horse racing world needs to police this so no horse has to be subjected to these drugs again. May Medina rest in heaven .
You people in the comment section who say this horse was doped to death are a bunch of idiots. Stop speculating as to what is going on behind the scenes. To all of you who want to ban horse racing, I hope you will be happy with yourself once that happens as you all know most of these horses will get shipped to slaughterhouses in Canada, Mexico, Europe, and Asia. You animal rights advocates are idiots. You don't want what's best for the animal. You only want what is best for your own emotionally unstable minds. The drug users haven't ruined the sport, it's the animal rights people who are doing that.
I think that it is very sad, actually heartbreaking that Medina Spirit was stripped of his Derby win. I wish there was some way of giving him recognition for being a very good horse that won some impressive races. One might say that he was just a horse and doesn't know he was stripped of his Derby win, but to die so young, and to have given us his all to provide us with the thrill of a good race where we can live our dreams out over the course of a race pulling for our favorite horse, seems like we owe him something. I don't know what killed Medina Spirit, perhaps it was a Heart attack, but don't blame him if he was illegally medicated, because one thing that he proved and no one can ever take that away from home him. He had a big Heart a and a champion's desire to win. R. I.P,. Medina Spirit.

Y’all she makes my day better and it’s also my birthday
Y’all she makes my day better and it’s also my birthday
wow someone got caught is more like it annndddd a 90 day suspension?? wow just wow
This really sucks!!!
The horse should not be stripped of anything. The owner should be charged and put in jail.
He shouldn’t be suspended for 90 days,.. he should never be allowed to own or train again!! EVER!!
Dead horse – beaten
He's the greatest thief, imagine knowing that your horse has a 90% chance of winning with all the P.E.Ds he's on
Again, it's all about the money. They wanted a live Kentucky Derby winner to ask for the big stud fees they couldn't get with dead one or a runner-up. Baffert needs to go!
@ 0:52 $31 million? Talk about sloppy editing. Cheatin" Bob Baffert finally gets more than a slap on the wrist.
appeal is pointless. like every race run every day. stewards decisions are final. wager payouts are unaffected.

The racing industry failed the horse , the handicappers and now they are using last year's race to trend. This is complete bs . zIm done with this sport.
Mr Edd says" Well Wilber, once again the horse gets screwed but the humans go on to race another day".

and He will deliver you"

He shouldn’t be suspended for 90 days,.. he should never be allowed to own or train again!! EVER!!
Everyone on is on the take..
This is Bull…. It's outrageous to do that to a horse that died. Baffert can take his punishment for all the crap he did. Medina Spirit is still The Kentucky Derby Winner to me. Why did they wait so long to decide on their decision. No offense to Mandaloun, he's a terrific horse to, they all are. It's the selfish owners, trainers and more than make this all Suck! Churchill Downs can just Shove it!! Baffert I hope you're proud of yourself, just retire already.You've done enough, and the horses you've trained have to take the punishment they didn't deserve.
Ban horse racing.
The horse should not be stripped of anything. The owner should be charged and put in jail.
Ban horse racing!! The horse's are used and abused. Drugged and Over worked until they get injured or drop dead.
This poor horse! Doped to death…makes me sick!
My husband also received up to 3btc right from this source 👆everyone keeps earning

The horse addressed media in a press conference; “It was tainted Boner pills. Got my bute mixed up with Grandpas?â€ÂÂ
everybody’s cheating these days…
I was once a fan of horse racing. I am no longer a fan. They abuse young horses to win races. They are doping them and running them to death. I was employed in the industry. It’s ugly.
90 day suspension lol
vivant
vom.red
This will make the horse depressed I bet
The whole truth about the coronavirus. Watch the video you will be shocked EVERYDAYS.CF 2021 was an action-packed year I got a feeling 2022 is going to get even crazier â„–-17
