Thought it was a bad reversal for a lot of reasons:
Clearly the best horse eliminated,
Tradition in a Rough and Tumble Race of needing a finishing order reversal to take a winner down,
Slop track likely affected outcome. Saez likely sloppy in what he told the steward
Red Outfit Woman in Stewards Booth likely ignored 1-3 above. (Though 2nd steward must have joined her)
Sleepy Bill Mott lobbying like a Petroleum Lobbyist on National T.V. needing a Derby "Win" and they seem to have obliged him.
Bad Bad reversal. Disqualified horse was mine and I won't say...but man. Could do no wrong today until that disqualification. Thought I fired off my pick, but don't see it here.
