Country House at 65-1 wins as Maximum Security gets DQ'd. Some people just got richer from that, that's for sure.

I don't see how that infraction had any bearing on the result.
And yet, we spent 15 minutes reviewing it, and reversing the result of the biggest horse race of the year. A complete black eye.

Last and only other time there was a DQ at the Derby was 1968. And that was a drug test result after the fact, right?

150,000 White people in stupid hats show up for 2 minutes of that? Man... I need a horse (or at least should become a professional race horse namer).

You should try living in Louisville during Derby Week. It's actually getting more absurd, since on Thursday I was driving past Churchill Downs to get to the Watterson Expressway only to find Central Ave. was closed down due to races, so I had to backtrack and head towards U of L and I-65. I was like "Huh? What are they doing on Thursday? Oaks is tomorrow." My wife: "It's this Thurby thing (Thursday Derby). It's becoming more of a thing for locals while the Derby is for out of towners." Me: "Isn't Oaks supposed to be for locals???" Her: "It's gotten too commercial. Now there's Thurby." Me: "There's a reason my grandparents used to go to the lake for a few days during this time of year."
Dusty Rhodes booked this from the grave today.

Last and only other time there was a DQ at the Derby was 1968. And that was for a banned substance. This is the first DQ pertaining to an illegal movement that involved a winner.

What more messed up the Jockey who called for it wasn't even involved in the accident itself.

Maximum Security's team is filing an appeal according to CBS News. They will also not be running in the Preakness.

So I've read from a couple of horse racing experts that it's a minor miracle that the violations didn't end up causing outright deaths, much less serious injuries to horse and jockey both.
