The horse that got scratched was one trained by D Wayne Lukas, and that man is a GOD in the horse racing business. Dude's been training longer than I've existed on this planet (I'm a 45 yr old ladypede) Derby winning horse ownet/trainer/jockey are all first time Derby winners. 80-1 odds means a $2 win ticket, I'd have to go find the numbers, but you'd be getting back something like $160. That's a LOT of dough to pay out. The more exotic bets were even crazier. Horse racing has taken a huge hit with last yr's Derby getting disqualified cause of a banned substance so they needed a feel good story but THIS? I can't see this being rigged cause everything is under a super huge microscope right now.
