Kentucky Derby 2019 (FULL RACE) ends in controversial finish | NBC Sports

When asked if he agreed with the outcome, Maximum Security responded: "Nay"

[Ivan-fsnz]

He will be remembered as the Greatest Disqualified Winner of all time.

One thing's for sure, the judges got a lot of people who never watch horse races to not only watch, but to have very big opinions about it.

[tylermorro]

Who’s back here on what was originally supposed to be Derby Day 2020?

[thomasmarino]

I’ve been a horse racing fan my whole life. And because of this result I will never look at this sport the same way. They never should have taken him down.

[aiyoungboy]

Horse doesn't speak English so Horse knows who actually won the race, Max Security doesn't care or know about this DQ lmao he's still proud.

[marxmaratpaine]

Hey Maximum Security, don't feel bad, these things happen, you ran a great race. Not sure if you're reading this, because you're a horse.

[thk]

I interviewed Maximum Security after this race. "Hey Max, " I said, "do you feel robbed? Will Country House need maximum security after this?" I thought my wordplay was clever, and then MS took some hay in his mouth, looked me straight in the eye, and you know what he said?

Nothing. He just chewed his hay. I still think he appreciated the joke.

[SavedMoon]

I'm not knowledgeable on horse racing rules but what I can see is that Maximum Security is one crazy fast horse!... so beautiful and astonishing the way he kept speeding up!!

[Mirsab]

2:25 I just realized that maximum security is probably a horse's name and not the event's security situation 😂😂

[dannyk]

What a bunch of b.s. youre telling me the winner has never done this in 144 years?

[wolverineracing]

How do you disqualify that horse on that sloppy track ??? Fixed

[TheMischief]

Maximum Security got robbed period .... it was a muddy, sloppy track, it was a wonder no one was killed.

[jorgefigueroa]

People booed the race for first time ever. The winner also makes contact against the 21 and other horse.

[staceyshaffer]

Maximum Security won that race by 2 lengths, was in the lead the entire race, ran its heart out and should not have been disqualified.Unbelievable!

[JennaMarie-zndi]

1. Those track conditions were horrible, my dad was a jockey for 30 years, and this was an insane call, I cant belive it.

[lancelotlink]

That sloppy wet track just might of had something to do with MS running out of its lane. I doubt it was intentional.

[Theroadmen]

Maximum security you are the BEST! For me you are the WINNER OF THE KENTUCKY DERBY 2019.

[ENTERTVINMENT]

He will be remembered as the Greatest Disqualified Winner of all time !

[brianparker]

Shouldn't like 7 other horses be DQ'd for bumping?? Absolutely ridiculous ruling!!!
