Maximum Security was the first horse to cross the finish line at Churchill Downs, but after a 22-minute review, the horse was found to have illegally bumped into other horses on the final turn. As a result, Maximum Security was disqualified, and 65-1 longshot Country House was declared the official winner. Photo by the Courier-Journal
