A JOCKEY EYE VIEW WITH MAXIMUM SECURITY
It's not everyday you get to ride America's best racehorse...
Go between the ears with Garrett Servis, son of trainer Jason, and breeze Maximum Security around King Abdulaziz Racetrack as he prepares for the 2020 Saudi Cup.
Maximum Security boasts an enviable race record and will be partnered by jockey Luis Saez in a bid to secure the $20 million USD first prize.
Notable victories include...
Grade 1 Cigar Mile
Grade 3 Bold Ruler
Grade 1 Haskell Invitational
(Disqualified) Kentucky Derby
Grade 1 Florida Derby
A fan favourite, Maximum Security was famously disqualified from the 2019 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, despite being first past the post ahead of Country House who was later called the winner.

The Saudi Cup is the richest contest in the history of horse racing after prize money for the inaugural contest in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, was confirmed at $20 million USD.
The race, to be held on February 29 at the King Abdulaziz Racetrack, takes place four weeks after the Pegasus World Cup, but a month before the Dubai World Cup.
An exciting undercard includes the $1 million USD Turf with trainers Willie Mullins, John Gosden and Aidan O'Brien all sending horses from their stable.
