  1. Disgusting how the 3 studio analysts are crucifying Baffert at the desk as the Preakness is airing live- …theirs is only a court of PUBLIC OPINION while shrouding Baffert in shame. . .but if Baffert seeks to run this through a judicial court only to shut these middle aged 
    ham🐖hocks down, maybe he should. ,
    this entire diatribe in to Baffert reeks of a further agenda which smacks to the downfall of a great American tradition being proxied off to foreign investors and foreign ownership alike-
    kiss an American racing history goodbye as these scripted industry analysts seek to bury this country to the core from its original roots. ,

  2. NBC can not report on a subject without using words that are not applicable. A. The medication as an ointment is NOT a Steroid. B Baffert didn't admit to wrong doing, he found the cause and made it public. C. The medication in the amount found did not and Could NOT affect the horse's racing speed or endurance or pain level. The effect on the out come of the derby was 0 – zip-Nada.
    Why does NBC and other broadcasters have to make things so detrimental when the situation is so blown out about almost nothing. It seems they just love to hate. It would be interesting to find out these media people really know about the sport!!

  3. The real reason this is not being pursued is that the drug in question is not really a performance enhancing drug.

  4. Que es eso, corre envenenado y lo premian permitiendole correr el preakness, no me crean tan idiota, la hipica americana y del sur del continente nobes sino VENENO

  5. How can anybody anymore look at this guy with a Straight Face….🤔 Since Steriod Ointment won't be allowed in Watch for Bob's 2nd Horse 🏇 "Concert Tour" to Wingman Type Block out other Horses so that "Medina" can get a Win n Triple Crown Possibility at Belmont !!

  6. 🗣 hey that guy is winning to much I want some of that money
    😢😥😢😥😢😥😢😥😢😥🥺

  7. Non horse people are clueless. It isn't a "change" in his story. Anti-inflammatory meds are typically injected or given in an oral paste, which wasn't done. Using a fungal ointment wouldn't be an initial thought of how this minuscule residual drug entered the bloodstream.

  8. i guess that money got into the right hands. old bob, his story changes everyday. well seems this mystic drugging has happened atleast 30 times with bob. look for bobs new book, juiced 2.
