I read it can be applied topically, so wonder if anyone handling the horse had it on their hands from using on another horse?

this is just another reason for the Horse integrity and safety act, to regulate this stuff at every track!

Gamine’s Oaklawn positive from 2020 of lidocaine was not the only positive That weekend from Oaklawn. However it was the only Baffert one. 
the lower the threshold they test for the more likely we see environmental contamination.

It’s a common topical drug for people who suffer from Psoriasis.

I agree Amy,

It's exactly b/c of all the priors that I don't believe he's guilty. Baffert isn't stupid. He knows the microscope's been on him. He wouldn't risk it. 

Trial by Twitter - that's the disturbing aspect of all this.

Trial by FB as well.

Social media=lynch mob---

I believe he will be proven to be  not guilty of this 

He  is way. too visible to risk his entire career in a race where he is

under great scrutiny -- it does not make sense

Hoping you are right, for the sake of the horse and Johnny V.
