Medina Spirit, the horse that recently won the Kentucky Derby before failing an illegal drug test, was approved to compete in the Preakness Stakes race as trainer Bob Baffert announced that the illegal substance found in the horse’s blood after the Derby was included in an ointment used on the horse.
On Sunday, Baffert said that after the Kentucky Derby, Medina Spirit tested positive for betamethasone, a corticosteroid banned above a certain level in racing.
