"Judge Denies Appeal to Allow Baffert-Trained Horse in 2024 Kentucky Derby"
Amr Zedan's racing stable plans to appeal a Kentucky judge's decision denying an injunction request to overturn Churchill Downs, Inc.'s ban against trainer Bob Baffert, which would have made his horse Muth eligible for the Kentucky Derby. The judge also denied CDI's request to dismiss the case, but expressed concerns about the potential impact on innocent third parties and the public interest. Zedan's legal team is disappointed with the ruling and plans to appeal, while CDI expressed satisfaction with the court's decision and made a lighthearted comment about "Derby Fever."
