LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Churchill Downs has reinstated trainer Saffie Joseph Jr. nearly two months after indefinitely suspending him when two of his horses died suddenly at the home of the Kentucky Derby. Joseph is allowed to enter horses in races and apply for stalls at all Churchill Downs Inc. tracks immediately. The decision comes after an investigation by the Kentucky Horse Racing Commission and the release of necropsy reports of the two horses that died under Joseph's care. Necropsies on the two horses did not find any conclusive causes.
