Taking it head on would have been wise, but his credibility is shot.
Does anyone believe that Medina was juiced and that was how he won the Derby? It cleared within 10 Days or so?

I don’t think he was juiced but the problem is Baffert has continually shown that he thinks rules don’t apply to him.
His horse was DQ’d in the Oaks last year and this year there is an issue in the Derby.
Why can’t he play by the rules everyone else does? At what point are all of these “mistakes” not okay?
