The horses were running in the slop, sometimes strange things happen. It didn't appear the eventual winner was hindered at all. There is a reason why this hasn't happened in the 130 plus years of the Derby. It's a bad look for racing. And in my humble opinion, had Maximum Security been a Baffert or Lukas trained horse, there would have been zero chance he would have been taken down. No matter, it's done.
