I don’t know why he didn’t. Maybe he saw the other jockeys making their calls and waited to talk to the stewards after they started their investigation:
Maximum Security led the field into the final turn, and the trouble began when they moved back toward the Churchill Downs grandstand. Maximum Security drifted out and into the path of War of Will, who had to check hard. Long Range Toddy and Bodexpress were also affected by the mishap.
“I really thought I was going to win the Derby,” said War of Will jockey Tyler Gaffalione. “I checked pretty hard when (Maximum Security) came out as far as he did.”
