Mage is partly owned by Commonwealth, an app where investors can buy shares in racehorses for as little as $50. They crashed the winner’s circle in Kentucky. (Photo provide by owner.) Can’t wait to see what happens here if Mage wins again.
The Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert is returning to the Triple Crown stage on Saturday, having been barred from last year’s Preakness Stakes after his colt Medina Spirit failed a drug test after winning the 2021 Kentucky Derby.
Already, Baffert’s day has been tinged by controversy: Another horse he trained, Havnameltdown, sustained a fatal injury in an undercard race on Saturday and was euthanized on the racetrack.
