According to Craig Robertson, the lawyer representing Bob Baffert, a second-post race test has confirmed that Medina Spirit (Protonico) tested positive for the prohibited corticosteroid betamethasone, which could lead to the horse being disqualified from this year=s GI Kentucky Derby. In response, Churchill Downs Inc. banned Baffert for two years. AIn response to the inquiries, this will acknowledge that the Medina Spirit split sample confirmed the finding of betamethasone at 25 picograms,@ Robertson said in a statement. AThere is other testing that is being conducted, including DNA testing. We expect this additional testing to confirm that the presence of the betamethasone was from the topical ointment, Otomax, and not an injection. At the end of the day, we anticipate this case to be about the treatment of Medina Spirit=s skin rash with Otomax. We will have nothing further to say until the additional testing is complete.@ As of the deadline for this story, the Kentucky Racing Commission had yet to make any statements regarding Medina Spirit and the Betamethasone positive and neither had it confirmed that Medina Spirit has failed any drug tests.

If Baffert cannot compete in the 2022 and 2023 Kentucky Derby many prominent owners may choose to give their horses to other trainers. Churchill issued a statement Wednesday, which read, in part: AThe suspension prohibits Baffert, or any trainer directly or indirectly employed by Bob Baffert Racing Stables, from entering horses in races or applying for stall occupancy at all CDI-owned racetracks. This decision follows the confirmation by attorneys representing Bob Baffert of the presence of betamethasone, a prohibited race-day substance, in Medina Spirit=s bloodstream on the day of the 147th running of the Kentucky Derby in violation of the Commonwealth of Kentucky=s equine medication protocols and CDI=s terms and conditions for racing.@ Churchill Downs CEO Bill Carstanjen made it clear that the company has no tolerance for anybody whose action might compromise the integrity of the sport. ACDI has consistently advocated for strict medication regulations so that we can confidently ensure that horses are fit to race and the races are conducted fairly,@ Carstanjen said. AReckless practices and substance violations that jeopardize the safety of our equine and human athletes or compromise the integrity of our sport are not acceptable and as a company we must take measures to demonstrate that they will not be tolerated. Mr. Baffert=s record of testing failures threatens public confidence in thoroughbred racing and the reputation of the Kentucky Derby. Given these repeated failures over the last year, including the increasingly extraordinary explanations, we firmly believe that asserting our rights to impose these measures is our duty and responsibility.@ Cont. p4 TDN HEADLINE NEWS • PAGE 4 OF 16 • THETDN.COM THURSDAY • JUNE 3, 2021 Baffert cont. Bob Baffert & Amr Zedan | Coady CDI said that it was reserving the right to extend Baffert=s suspension if there are additional violations in any racing jurisdiction. NYRA suspended Baffert for an undetermined period starting May 17 and they announced that the ban would stay in place until further notice. AOn May 17, the New York Racing Association, Inc. announced the temporary suspension of Bob Baffert from entering horses in races and occupying stall space at Belmont Park, Saratoga Race Course and Aqueduct Racetrack,@ NYRA spokesman Pat McKenna said. AThat suspension remains in effect and NYRA will make a determination regarding the length and terms of Mr. Baffert=s suspension at the appropriate time and based on information generated by the ongoing investigation in Kentucky.@ After the news broke that the horse had tested positive after the Derby, trainer Bob Baffert and owner Amr Zedan requested that a second sample be sent to a laboratory, hoping that it would not show any traces of the prohibited medication.

  • Galloping Onto the Throne: Queen Elizabeth I and the Symbolism of the Horse
    Heidegger 1 Galloping onto the Throne: Queen Elizabeth I and the Symbolism of the Horse University of California, San Diego, Department of History, Undergraduate Honors Thesis By: Hannah von Heidegger Advisor: Ulrike Strasser, Ph.D. April 2019 Heidegger 2 Introduction As she prepared for the impending attack of the Spanish Armada, Queen Elizabeth I of England purportedly proclaimed proudly while on horseback to her troops, “I know I have the body but of a weak and feeble woman; but I have the heart and stomach of a king, and of a king of England too.”1 This line superbly captures the two identities that Elizabeth had to balance as a queen in the early modern period: the limitations imposed by her sex and her position as the leader of England. Viewed through the lens of stereotypical gender expectations in the early modern period, these two roles appear incompatible. Yet, Elizabeth I successfully managed the unique path of a female monarch with no male counterpart. Elizabeth was Queen of England from the 17th of November 1558, when her half-sister Queen Mary passed away, until her own death from sickness on March 24th, 1603, making her one of England’s longest reigning monarchs. She deliberately avoided several marriages, including high-profile unions with Philip II of Spain, King Eric of Sweden, and the Archduke Charles of Austria. Elizabeth’s position in her early years as ruler was uncertain due to several factors: a strong backlash to the rise of female rulers at the time; her cousin Mary Queen of Scots’ Catholic hereditary claim; and her being labeled a bastard by her father, Henry VIII.

  • Sea the Stars & Crystal Ocean
    TUESDAY, 26 JUNE 2018 There was never going to be any difficulty in their first season, PEDIGREE INSIGHTS: SEA THE when Sea The Stars was priced at i85,000 and Frankel at ,125,000 and they respectively covered 136 and 131 mares. The STARS & CRYSTAL OCEAN problem is that there isn't an endless supply of breeders prepared to invest heavily in untried but high-priced stallions and events showed that not even Sea The Stars and Frankel were immune to the fluctuating demand that affects so many young stallions in their first four seasons. It now seems hard to believe that Sea The Stars's totals in those first four years were 136, 83, 138 and 82 mares. Frankel's figures were 131, 128, 104 and 105. Perhaps Frankel's arrival as a stallion in 2013 was partly to blame for Sea The Stars's book falling to 82 mares, but their main problem was that these unproven horses were competing against stallions whose ability to sire top performers had been proven time after time.

  • Root Causes of Terrorism: Myths, Reality and Ways Forward
    Root Causes of Terrorism Addressing the causes of a problem is often more effective than trying to fight its symptoms and effects. In Root Causes of Terrorism, a team of international experts analyses the possibilities and limitations of preventing and reducing terrorism by addressing the factors that give rise to it and sustain it. The questions raised include: • What are the main circumstances that provide preconditions for the emergence of various types of terrorism? • What are the typical precipitants that trigger terrorist campaigns? • To what extent is it possible to reduce the problem of terrorism by influencing these causes and circumstances? • Should we address those factors that sustain terrorist campaigns rather than root causes? Tore Bjørgo is Senior Research Fellow at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI), and Research Director and Professor of Police Science at the Norwe- gian Police University College.
