Yes, tests can be incorrect. The racing jurisdictions know it, as the procedure for split sample testing to eliminate laboratory error as a cause for a positive, and as confirmation of a positive, is built into the system.

The only reason the public knows of this positive is because the owner decided to talk about it.

As I read the articles, they don't seem to be disputing that the horse had an excessive amount of clenbuterol in his system; rather, they seem only to be questioning how it got there.
