Look this is the issue. The horse fouled horses who couldn't get 10f.

If they'd of been close to the winner at the wire, then, o.k.

Putting the winner almost last for fouling 2 horses that didn't have the gas to get 10f .

That's the issue. It's not safety. If you're running almost 20 horses on rubbery jello with standing water, then, claiming safety is pretty rich.

The point of the Bayern comparison is simply that the rules are applied subjectively. And clearly the horse racing world is okay with that. BTW says it himself that gate infractions are rarely if ever adjudicated. But why exactly is that "okay"? If Bayern wipes out 3 horses by drifting in out of the gate and Max wipes out 3 horses by drifting out with a quarter mile left to run in the Kentucky Derby, why couldn't the stews subjectively decide to leave him up in this instance in determining that the 20 couldnt win if they went around again and the 1 was partially responsible for climbing up on the 7 and bulling his way through before the 7 drifted out anyhow? My greatest surprise is simply how strongly those that feel he should have come down are expressing their thoughts while not acknowledging there do remain unanswered questions.

They weren’t closer because they were fouled. The winner was placed behind the horse they deemed he fouled.

This isn’t hard guys. Some of you are acting like you’ve never seen a DQ before.

Your not getting 10f stuff is silly since the horse you keyed that you claim can’t get 10f was a winner at 9.5f.

I am done with Horse Racing forever or until "rules" are same for every race. If 2020 KY Derby has 8 horses DQ for bumping a horse out of the gate OR the 18 cut off the 14 to get to the lead then I will come back

Was a joke and yes I hit the Ex/Tri before Barbara decided to make the order of finish

Maybe if the West's take their horses out of TC/BC races and take a year or 2 off of buying then the industry will realize what happened.

Stole a race from horse,trainer,owners and money from bettors

Because most tossed a horse out that many people had, and misery loves company (a lot.)

Wrong, if he fouled horses that were gunna otherwise win then, they'd be closer to him at the wire. He fouled horses that couldn't get 10f, and that's most of the horses in that race. They took him down for fouling horses that couldn't get 10f. I wrote it twice, because you are too damn slow to get it unless it's pounded into you, unfortunately.

Did you watch the race with your eyes open?

No one ever calls an objection in the Derby,” Baffert told me Sunday afternoon, by text. “It’s always a roughly run race. Twenty-horse field. I have been wiped out numerous times, but that is the Derby. I can see by the book why they did it. But sometimes you’ve got to take your ass-kickings with dignity.”

Baffert trains for the owners of Maximum Security and you can be rest assured if he trained War of Will he would’ve claimed foul.

When they straightened up, War of Will was no more than a neck behind Maximum Security with eventual winner Country House on the outside with a short lead.

War of Will did not wilt until the 1/16th pole (i.e., deep stretch).

War of Will was so empty late in this race.
Yeah, he had to make two separate moves for the lead less than a 1/16th of a mile apart.

Not sure why you wouldn't expect a horse that had its momentum taken away to tire late, especially after making a massive effort to get back into contention at the top of the stretch.

there is no rule in ky of which I am aware which speaks to "not affecting the outcome of a race." Besides, who knows what War of the Will may have done if not interfered with at top of lane. Outcomes of races are absolutely impacted by fouls which occur within the race. And yes Bayern should have been DQ'd.

I always thought Bayern deserved to be DQ'd until I saw the view from overhead. When you see the head-on it looks like he took out the whole field. But when you watch the overhead view, it doesn't look too bad. After seeing the overhead view I don't think he should have been taken down. To be taken down for interference out of the gate, you have to really butcher someone. This was not that bad. Watch the overhead view. About 12 seconds into this video, they show the overhead view:

Retire this horse. These sadists don't deserve to see him run. Period.

They won their little pc warrior fight. Now, you don't ever let them have the pleasure of seeing him compete for races that are secondary. You will regret letting them see him run again. They don't deserve it. They really don't.

Save disqualifications for horses that foul deserving winners (only.)
