    Medina Spirit is stripped of Kentucky Derby victory, Bob Baffert suspended

    by John Cherwa, Los Angeles Times Feb 21, 2022 3 minutes

    Medina Spirit is no longer the winner of last year’s Kentucky Derby. At least for now.

    On Monday, the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission, a week after it held a hearing, announced it was stripping the since-deceased colt of his victory after he tested positive for a legal drug banned for use on race day. It’s only the third time a winner has been disqualified in the 146-year history of the world’s most famous horse race.

    With the disqualification, Mandaloun becomes the winner. However, there will be no refunds or payouts for anyone who bet on the horse.
