Derby winner War Emblem escapes owners regret
War Emblem, trained by Bobby Springer and owned by Russell Reineman, won the Kentucky Derby after a controversial sale to Prince Ahmed Salman’s Thoroughbred Corp. The deal, $900,000 for 90 percent, followed a victory in the Illinois Derby. Springer and Reineman watched from home as War Emblem led from the start and held off Proud Citizen. They anticipate a share of a $1 million bonus and future stud potential, while Baffert praised the horse’s adaptability.
