Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ In 2021, Medina Spirit finished first, but was disqualified after a post-race urine sample revealed traces of a banned drug, betamethasone, in the horse. Mandaloun was placed first.
  2. ^ In 2019, Maximum Security finished first, but was disqualified to 17th for fouling War of Will.
  3. ^ In 1984, Gate Dancer finished fourth, but was disqualified for fouling Fali Time, who was then moved up from 5th to 4th place.
  4. ^ In 1968, Dancer's Image finished first, but was disqualified after a post-race urine sample revealed traces of a banned drug in the horse. The drug in question - phenylbutazone - illegal at the time, is now legal for use on racehorses in many states, including Kentucky. Forward Pass was placed first.
