I can understand if you don't like the rule but the race was run in the US and the rules were applied properly for the Maximum Security disqualification. While technically irrelevant to DQ, the fact that his trainer was indicted in relation to doping his horses less than a year after the fact should really have put a nail in the coffin for complaints about the DQ.

This too....his re rallying in the final furlong of this and his other races with Servis was mysteriously gone once he went to Baffert.

Coincidence I’m sure.
