The trainer of War of Will accused Maximum Security jockey Luis Saez of improperly blocking horses both headed into the far turn and during the home stretch.

From left: Country House, War of Will, Maximum Security and Code of Honor run four-wide at the turn for home at Saturday’s Kentucky Derby. By Jacob Bogage Jacob Bogage National sports writer and blogger Email Bio Follow May 8 at 12:09 PM The controversial ending at the Kentucky Derby has horse trainers and owners up in arms with jockeys, race officials and one another, and threatens to cast a pall over the two remaining Triple Crown races.

That rebuke came after Maximum Security owner Gary West vowed to challenge the race’s result in court and blamed War of Will jockey Tyler Gaffalione for causing the ruckus at the turn for home. — Kentucky Derby May 4, 2019 Casse rejected that accusation and instead claimed Saez glanced over his shoulder while riding the rail heading into the far turn, allowing Maximum Security to block horses coming up on his outside.

“He carried everybody out intentionally, and then he dives in. It’s almost like following a drunk driver. You don’t know which direction he’s going to go. … People were taking shots at Tyler, saying he should have went inside or should have went outside. That really upset me. I went back and watched the entire race and noticed that we were bothered not just in the main event, but we were herded prior to that.

Damn lie

Yeah the fact that the track at the KentuckyDerby was worse than a swamp couldn’t have had anything to do with it

With rain and a sloppy track, this could have been completely accidental. He won by a lot! Snarky rival trainers should keep quiet.

they also have spurs jammed into their sides and are kicked with them harder and harder to make them go faster.

The horses are running because they are running away from being beaten on their asses. They are drugged and are run into the ground and then put to sleep when they can o longer race for profit. I know this because I have taken in abused race track horses. Stop supporting!!

Rename Maximum Security Matt Gaetz! mattgaetz

Well okay....... but I think they should have their choice of the most lush pastures in our vast country we can find. Then they can block each other all they want. I think we've used them long enough.

Or ridden like a drunk driver.

This is comparable to how the media and Democrats ran with the alleged Russian Collusion theory!

They should re-name the horse 'Matt Gaetz' RepMattGaetz

And still won

Maximum Security owner plans Kentucky Derby appeal, says disqualified horse won't run in PreaknessGary West appeared on NBC's 'Today' show Monday morning, two days after his horse Maximum Security was disqualified from the 2019 Kentucky Derby. It seems rather weird that THIS hasn't happened in the 144 previous Kentucky Derby races. If you’re going strictly by the rules then they made the right call. He clearly got out of his lane. Could have been very bad. Sad because he seemed to be the fastest horse. If realDonaldTrump is on his side, then there's something crooked going on with Maximum Security, or the owner. Investigate

Many in horse racing agree with Maximum Security's disqualification at Kentucky DerbyAfter the most controversial finish in the history of the Kentucky Derby, one thing seemed resolute: There was near unanimity among trainers that the stewards made the right decision to disqualify Maximum Security and award the victory to Country House. Seems like a bad call to me. Maybe they should install rear view mirrors on horses And near unanimity among sane people that organized animal abuse shouldn’t have a lucrative TV contract. Non-Liberal industries, still respect the Rules and Laws put in place due to previous cheaters being caught. If you're a whining Liberal Anarchist, perhaps Horseracing is not for you.
