Not sure if the Gaffilione quote is out of context. Why would he say he was out of horse if the War of Will was still contending for the win in deep stretch?

That is a huge lie. War of Will was so empty late in this race. If he'd of fouled horses that could run 10f, and were contending late in this race, then, it would make some sense. No, they dq'd him for fouling horses who couldn't run 10f on this day.

And, to Mark Casse, you were not gunna do much more than 8th place. You were out of horse. The best horse was dq'd because he possibly kept you from getting 6th, or 7th place.



Happy?

The only person on tv today that said anything worthwhile was rich migilore he said basically there's no rules in the derby and thats how he rode for the five he was in. They didnt want that trainer winning end of story

It keeps getting better. There’s no rules in the Derby and NY analysts were okay with what was going on at Santa Anita. That’s very pertinent to this discussion.

For someone who claims to be a gambler you’re not really acting like one.

I think its political and new people to the game will think the same (therefore they won't bet their $ on this game) and i do gamble I've been following this site for a few years and rarely ever post this turn of events have swayed me in the direction of this game is rigged etc etc sorry no-one wants to hear that **** that the horse came out blah blah blah if it waa so bad why didn't gafflione file claim? And now casse says well it wouldnt of helped our placing blah blah. If this game is about integrity and adhering to the rules why hasnt anything remotely close to tbis out happened prior? Why was bayern left up? You cant convince me or a good swath of bettors otherwise they didnt want servis winning it. As soon as mott opened his mouth i knew MS was coming down

You’re entitled to your wrong opinion. I asked you earlier why Kentucky stewards would not want Servis winning. We both know what your response was.

Horseplayers have to deal with DQ’s. They suck and it’s unfair but they happen. I’m sorry you lost. You picked the right horse. But that horse fouled a few and cost them a placing. At some point you’ll probably get put up when you shouldn’t. It happens.

You keep getting it all wrong. Casse didn’t claim foul. But he should have. There was an inquiry and the connections of Country House and Long Range Toddy claimed foul.

Are you really going to pretend Maximum Security didn’t impede War of Will, which led to Long Range Toddy having to sharply take up? Did you not see Maximum Security come out 3-4 paths?

I’m kind of surprised people that have watched thousands of races keep acting like novices. This was an easy call.

1st off, if yall want perfection, don't run about 20 horses on rubbery jello. If people are concerned about the safety of the horses and jockeys, then, that's where to start. I brought up Casse because he was being interviewed on TVG. This is a trainer who put a horse on the track that couldn't run 10f. That's why he finished 8th. He had every chance to win this at the top of the stretch. He just had no finish. Most don't. They took this winner down for fouling horses who didn't have the gas to compete for the win. If he fouled horses who had a chance to win, I'd agree with you. They had zero chance to win, because they couldn't get 10f. That's what stewards do all the time (ignore fouls against "dead" horses.) Yall complained that you didn't like Giacamo winning. Well, look who you now have as a Kentucky Derby Winner............Enjoy.

I bet Giacomo and had a future bet on him. But I complained about him winning?

Ummm okay.

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).

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.

Making excuses for horses that fade in the stretch of the Kentucky Derby is Fool's Gold. He couldn't get 10f. Period. He was right there, and faded because he isn't able to get 10f, and the winner can. Go kiss on Casse.

You may be right. We’ll never know for certain because another horse impeded War of Will and was eventually disqualified. Though I see WOW is potentially going to run in the Preakness so we’ll see how he does.

Here is what Baffert had to say about the decision to disqualify Maximum Security:

While many horsemen have come out in support of the controversial stewards' ruling in Saturday's Kentucky Derby, five-time Derby winner Bob Baffert isn't one of them.

“No one ever calls an objection in the Derby,” Baffert said 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.”

Crazy, it's almost like he also trains for the Wests and has a business incentive to publicly be on their side.

Sorry for my repeat analysis...Oh, and I have lost plenty of bets because horses that couldn't get a distance......did!

Actually:

Hansel (1991)
Pine Bluff (1992)
Tabasco Cat (1994)
Louis Quatorze (1996)
Point Given (2001)
Afleet Alex (2005)
Curlin (2007)
Lookin At Lucky (2010)
Shackleford (2011)
Oxbow (2013)

All lost ground in the stretch in their respective Kentucky Derbies yet came back to win the Preakness.

Go Servis yourself.
