In this image provided by Benoit Photo, Muth, with Juan Hernandez aboard, wins the Grade II, $200,000 San Vicente Stakes horse race Saturday, Jan. 6, 2024, at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif. The owner of Arkansas Derby winner Muth has sued Churchill Downs Inc. and is seeking a temporary injunction against what it called the track’s “illegal” ban of Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert that keeps the colt he trained from competing in next month’s 150th Kentucky Derby. The historic track initially suspended Baffert for two years through on June 2 following a failed postrace drug test by deceased colt Medina Spirit, who crossed the finish line first in the 2021 race but was later disqualified.
