"Reached by phone Tuesday, Dutrow acknowledged that his horse, Salute the Count, tested positive after a second-place finish in the Grade III Aegon Turf Sprint and took responsibility."

"Veitch said the level of clenbuterol found in Salute the Count was the highest he had seen in four years as chief steward. He said the testing lab at Iowa State University said Salute the Count had 41 petragrams of the medication in his system, more than twice the level of 20 allowed in Kentucky."

"Salute the Count has won 11 times in 41 starts, but his biggest successes came two years ago when Dutrow began training him. He went from winning a $20,000 claimer to three stakes victories."

Biggest shocker of the whole story there
