Baffert's Vet Gets Slapped

Disqualified for drugs Derby winner Medina Spirit could not feel a thing the day he dropped dead after a workout in Dec 2021.

 "between Sept. 20, 2020 and Dec. 6, 2021,

without performing an examination and forming a diagnosis of any condition that required treatment, Respondent Baker prescribed, dispensed, or administered the following:

Finish First Supplement ..Sedivet Lasix; GastroGard.. Bute inj.. Adequan.. Vits and Vit Booster.. Naquasone paste.. Dorm.. Rompun.. HyVisc.. Vetalog.. Banamine.. Otomax.. Fulvicin.. Equimune.. fluid therapy.. throat spray.. Legend.. and Endoscope."

No diagnosis needed, no examination required ... just slam the shit into the animal.  On a regular basis.

Regular doses af Adequan?  That's like giving your child NyQuil for breakfast.

HyVisc?  That's Betamethasone,,, a banned 14 days out pain killing substance...

The vet got 4 years probation.  What a joke.

Your singling out one trainer thats still actively training.  Why not bring up the Chris Oakes, The Nick Surick's Rene Allard's of the business. Why are bettors not suing them for lost wagers?

Well, Baffert's won 17 Triple Crown races, two Triple Crowns and 20 Breeders Cup races.

Perhaps you can go after the others. Maybe John Frank will help you out.

Why this crew continues to appeal every negative decision is beyond me! They have to have spent 4 million on appealing things!

Thats a bit of a clown statement. Why not go after ALL of them on both sides of the pendulum? You sound like your just a Baffert antagonist.

If Baffert was instructing the vets what he wanted the horses to have,then they are probably not very happy right now!  11.wp 11.wp 11.wp ngc3
