Maximum Security DQ'd, Country House wins Kentucky Derby

Best Photos of the 145th Kentucky Derby

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) -- Maximum Security led all the way in the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, only to become the first winner disqualified for interference in the race's 145-year history. After a long wait, Long shot Country House was declared the winner

Country House, a 65-1 shot, finished second in the slop before an objection was raised, causing a lengthy delay while stewards repeatedly reviewed several angles of video footage, before he was elevated into the winner's circle.

The stunning outcome gave Hall of Fame trainer Bill Mott his first Derby victory at age 65. Jockey Flavien Prat, who originated the claim of foul, also won his first Derby.

Country House paid $132.40 to win -- the second-highest payout in Derby history. It was a crushing turn of events for trainer Jason Servis and jockey Luis Saez, who already had begun celebrating what they thought were their first Derby victories.

Instead, Maximum Security was dropped to 17th of 19 horses. The colt was the 9-2 second choice in the wagering.

Prat claimed that Maximum Security ducked out in the final turn and forced several horses to steady.

War of Will came perilously close to clipping heels with Maximum Security, which could have caused a chain-reaction accident.

The stewards reviewed race footage for nearly 20 minutes while keeping the crowd of 150,729 in suspense, clutching their betting tickets. Trainers and jockeys involved stared at the closest video screen waiting for a result.

Code of Honor was moved up to second and Tacitus was third.

Improbable was fourth and Game Winner fifth, two of trainer Bob Baffert's trio of entries.

It was a muddy and sloppy Derby. ;)

I personally think the stewards should have considered the track conditions and allowed the race results to stand without disqualifying Maximum Security.

It is always a hard call, especially if you are not there to witness first hand.

Just like in baseball, the ump is always right. ;)

That was my humble opinion ... that's all. The horse that ended up winning wasn't affected by Maximum Security. I didn't have a dog in the fight and was simply offering my opinion. You are correct ... the purse went to the winner !

Over on FR, that was the consensus of opinion of those who watched the Mud Derby.

M.S. was jobbed and robbed of the win. It tells me something (I'm not sure exactly what) that this was a first in the 147 year history of this contest.
