Baffert given 15 day suspension by Arkansas panel
Two time Triple Crown winner Bob Baffert receives a 15 day ban from the Arkansas Racing Commission after his horses Charlatan and Gamine tested positive for lidocaine. The ruling covers Aug 1 through Aug 15 and cites Rule 1233, placing responsibility on the trainer for entered horses. The horses were disqualified and their purses voided, with Gamine for $36,000. Baffert argues the exposure was accidental via an employee’s lidocaine patch and tongue ties, stressing no intentional wrongdoing.
