Saudis Not Ready to Pay Maximum Security=S TUESDAY, AUGUST 11, 2020 SANDIN OUT TO A FLYER WITH PICO D=ORO SAUDIS NOT READY TO PAY by Jessica Martini MAXIMUM SECURITY=S Gerry Sandin, who grew up near Bay Meadows Racetrack and played Little League with future trainer Bill Morey, always knew CONNECTIONS he wanted to own racehorses one day. The California native finally made the dream a reality when he purchased a son of Curlin at the OBS March 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale this year and he was cheering the colt on from his Bay Area home when Pico d=Oro became his first winner while breaking his maiden in stakes company in the Runhappy Juvenile S. at Ellis Park Sunday. AThat was my first win and it happened to be a stakes win,@ Sandin, a global operations manager for Apple, said while still savoring the victory Monday afternoon. AIt was a pleasant surprise--I was on a high for the second half of Sunday, it was tough to go to sleep last night.@ Sandin traces his love of racing back some three decades to time spent at Bay Meadows as a kid. Cont. p3 IN TDN EUROPE TODAY Maximum Security | Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia GOFFS ORBY YEARLING CATALOGUE OUT by Bill Finley The catalogue for the 2020 Goffs Orby Yearling Sale has been The Jockey Club of Saudi Arabia (JCSA) announced Monday released. Click or tap here to go straight to TDN Europe. that it will continue to withhold payment from the $20-million Saudi Cup to the connections of Maximum Security (New Year=s Day) as it continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the horse and former trainer Jason Servis. While that money is being withheld, a decision has been made to go ahead and pay the owners who had horses finish second through 10th in the Feb. 29 race. Shortly after Saudi Cup, Servis was among 27 people indicted on federal charges involving the doping of race horses. In April, Saudi authorities announced they would withhold paying out the purse to all connections while an investigation was ongoing. The Saudi Cup winner is due to collect $10 million. Monday=s announcement revealed for the first time that there was an Aobjection to the participation@ of Maximum Security after the race. It did not spell out who lodged the objection and when. The JCSA said the objection and the indictments were what led to the investigation. It also appears that no final decision will be reached until the case against Servis is adjudicated in the U.S. courts, as the JCSA said their investigation has been hampered by not being a party to the legal proceedings that are ongoing.
