Churchill Downs suspended Hall of Fame racehorse trainer Bob Baffert for two years Wednesday after a second post-race drug test for Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit also came back positive for the steroid betamethasone.

The Kentucky Horse Racing Commission could now disqualify Medina Spirit, which would elevate runner-up Mandaloun as the Derby winner.
