Wests suffer Derby disappointment

He was in 6th place and then you didn't see him again.
At least George Steinbrenner's horse ended up 7th.

The horse was stepped on and had to pull up though. It was running good until then.

14 years later a West owned horse wins the Derby.

Edit: Nevermind, disqualified. First time in history the first to cross the line was DQ'd.
