The rider of the 1 and the rider of the 7, Tyler Gafflione and Louis Saez ride on the same circuit all winter long in Florida and much of the spring.  They are in the same jocks room everyday.  The 1 wasn't going to win and I am sure Tyler didn't want to be the cause or reason why Saez didn't win the derby.  The winner and the other inquiry came from jocks who ride different circuits so probably not the same relationship.  Now had the 1 finished 3rd or 4th probably would have seen an objection from Gafflione.

saez has a reputation for being very aggressive out there but he certainly did the best he could correct the horse going wide at the turn.  Just kind of sucks to see the winner have to win like this but again truly believe that the right call was made regardless of all the outpouring and carrying on, doesn't matter if he was the best horse or not.

I am not quite sure how much the 20 the winner was actually bothered but it is what it is.
