No Kentucky Derby 150 for Bob Baffert. Churchill Downs extends trainer’s suspension.

Bob Baffert Churchill Churchill Downs CDI Kentucky Kentucky Derby Derby Churchill Downs Inc

Churchill Downs Inc. announced Monday that it is extending its track suspension of trainer Bob Baffert through the calendar year 2024.

After Medina Spirit tested positive for a banned substance following finishing first in the 2021 Kentucky Derby, the track suspended the six-time Derby winning trainer for two years, through the 2023 Derby.

In a press release Monday, Churchill said it is extending the suspension based “on continued concerns regarding the threat to the safety and integrity of racing he poses to CDI-owned racetracks.”
