Country House's stunning Kentucky Derby victory pays off big as a 65-1 long shot: $132.40 to win is second-highest payout in Derby history.
Flavien Prat rides Country House, left, to the finish line during the 145th running of the Kentucky Derby horse race at Churchill Downs Saturday, May 4, 2019, in Louisville, Ky. Country House was declared the winner after Maximum Security was disqualified following a review by race stewards.
Country House 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.“It feels pretty darn good,” Mott said. “It was an odd way to do it and we hate to back into any of these things. We’ll just have to prove ourselves in the future.”“I’m kind of speechless right now,” Prat said, letting out a long sigh.
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.Improbable was fourth and Game Winner was fifth, two of trainer Bob Baffert’s trio of entries. His other horse, Roadster, was 15th.
