Thread: Why Picograms are Important
If you are asking why is the Positive test on Bob Baffert’s Derby winner Medina Spirit so important when it’s just picograms of Betamethazone? That could not have really helped his performance. Right? (1)
On-Page 28 of the Jason Servis indictment prominent Vet, Dr Kristian Rhein was caught on a wiretap counselling Servis about the PED, SGF-1000: "There is no test for it in America, SGF-1000 may appear on a drug test as a false positive result for a different substance, Dex" (2)
Over the past few years, Baffert has had multiple positive tests that have been deemed “contamination” or accidental because legal drugs stayed in a horse’s system too long and were flagged...... (3)
.......but given what Dr Rhein said on wiretaps and what we know about PED’s and their molecular make-up it may be entirely plausible that these Baffert positive tests are actually undetectable PED’s being flagged as other things. (4)
Add in Baffert’s history of not only having horses run like Lance Armstrong climbing the Alps, but the fact that Baffert mysteriously killed 7 horses in 2013 and you can’t help but wonder if these flagged tests are really being caused by PED use. (5)
Baffert trains millions of dollars of bloodstock. Is it really plausible that he could have this many bad tests? 1 or 2 by accident maybe, but this many IMO points to what Dr. Rhein stated. Undetectable PED’s being flagged as something else in the post-race tests. (6)
Winning races is hard. Classic races even harder but Baffert makes the Triple Crown look like Barry Bonds hitting batting practice. All of this is just too good to be real, add in the positive tests, the horse deaths & what Dr Rhein has said & draw your own conclusions. (7)
