The DQ won't help the Preakness ratings...but it will do wonders for the ratings of the horseracing online chat rooms.

If Max Sec were going to run and set up.a rematch with Country House it would have sent ratings through the roof.

MARKET PENETRATION
ESPN, FoxNews, CNN, et al *... were not talking about Justify on the first Monday in May last year.
This year, they are talking about the Derby.
Any publicity (that isn't a breakdown/calling for abolition) is GOOD PUBLICITY(had to get in an 'all caps' 'yelling font', sorry).
*Last year al was complaining about having missed the Justify/Audible exacta, and et was phoning home to nostalgic Neflix viewers.

Derby ratings up 20% from last year. Tied with 1992 for highest since 1990.
Also a record betting handle for the day of 250 million

It definitely won't HURT the ratings since controversy seems to boost ratings in every other avenue of life.

Google Search Interest.
