I don't think Vekoma will win but I'm definitely throwing him in some exotics. He has 3 career wins in 4 races and has never finished lower than third.

    Pretty solid Oaks Day. I'm leaning 16-8-7 tomorrow, but the two other Baffert horses are enticing. Might even swap Tacitus and Game Winner.

    Very much not normal. In the few years I worked at Saratoga, there might have been a dozen objections, almost all of which were settled within a few minutes. This is one of the biggest “scandals” or whatever you want to call it in probably decades.

    Unless Maximum Security wins them both and is declared the people's Triple Crown winner.

    It wasn’t about the bump, per se.

    It was about the horse coming out of his lane and impeding the other horses.

    Looked like max was just off the rail and then he was way wide. Gutsy call though. I wouldn't want to make that one.

    Maximum security veered two lanes over to cut off two other horses. They are lucky no one was hurt and no horses went down. They easily could have tripped up.

    Clear violation and for good reason. Deserved the DQ. Unfortunate but that’s the rule.

    I don’t buy the jockey excuses that the crowd noise spooked the horse either.

    Meh. We're not going to see an "official" Triple Crown winner, and that's what most casual fans are interested in.

    Ugly move from Maximum Security, but with 20 horses in the race there are a lot of ugly moves.

    I’m still in shock they DQ’d him.

    I really hope they revisit the Derby Trail and how points are awarded. Would like to see more experienced horses with some different styles in the race instead of lightly raced with extremely similar skill sets.

    That was just sad honestly. I know people got pissed because they lost money and it felt cheap but in the 145 year history no horse had ever been DQ like that. This sport can't afford bad press like that.
