Baffert was also mentioned in the NYT article about the PETA video.

Quote:
In a recent investigation into the sudden deaths of seven horses trained by Bob Baffert from 2011 to 2013, the California Horse Racing Board found that Baffert was giving thyroxine to all of his horses whether they had thyroid problems or not. Baffert, a Hall of Fame trainer, said he stopped using the drug last March after the seventh horse died.
I suppose that Baffert should turn his Derby prospects over to other trainers now in anticipation that PETA may have a press conference about the thyroxine issue during Derby week. Maybe PETA can supply a list of approved trainers.
