Medina Spirit Trainer Suspended From Entering Horse In Belmont Stakes, Disqualifying Horse From Final Leg Of Triple Crown

The New York Racing Association suspended legendary horse trainer Bob Baffert, essentially disqualifying him from the final portion of horse racing’s Triple Crown, the Belmont Stakes. 

Baffert’s horse, Medina Spirit, failed a drug test after winning the Kentucky Derby. The trainer has faced challenges to compete in other races ever since, and an investigation surrounding the horse is currently underway.
