The Kentucky Derby's Winning Colt Has Failed A Second Drug Test

Medina Spirit, ridden by jockey John Velazquez, leads the field to the first turn during the 147th running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs on May 1 in Louisville, Ky. The colt has failed a second drug test following the race.

Medina Spirit tested positive for a type of banned steroid known as betamethasone after winning the legendary race on May 1. The same steroid was found in a second test.
