Police: Body found, homicide suspected at Kentucky Derby track

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — The discovery of a man's body Sunday in the stable area of Churchill Downs was being investigated as a homicide, but there is no connection to the race track or the Kentucky Derby, police said.

"At this point we don't have anything pointing to the fact that this had any association with Churchill Downs or the Derby itself," said Alicia Smiley, spokeswoman for Louisville Metro Police. "We are still investigating at the stables and at the barn, people who work out here trying to determine his identity as well as what may have led to this."

Smiley said the death is being investigated as a homicide and there were no obvious signs of a struggle in the barn.

"Our investigation is ongoing as to why he would have specifically been at this location," she said.

Churchill Downs security called police at 4:50 a.m. EDT, Smiley said. The body was found at the back of a barn occupied by Louisville trainer Angel Montano Sr.

Montano did not have a horse running Saturday either in the undercard or the Derby, which saw a record attendance of more than 165,000. A telephone call, text and Twitter message left for Montano were not immediately returned.

About 200 people live at Churchill Downs at any given time — either in dormitories on the edge of the property or in small apartments above some of the barns themselves.

Although Montano's barn is just four away — about 150 yards — from where this year's Derby winner I'll Have Another is kept, there was little talk of the incident in the stable area.

Instead, I'll Have Another's trainer and owners were participating in the usual post-Derby media interviews and speculating about the next race in racing's Triple Crown, the Preakness Stakes, in three weeks.

The body was removed by stretcher from the barn at 9:50 a.m., and police were seen packing about a dozen large paper bags into the back of a crime scene unit van. Smiley said an autopsy was tentatively scheduled for Monday.

About a week after last year's Kentucky Derby, jockey Michael Baze's body was found in a vehicle near the stables at the famed Louisville track. His death was ruled an accidental overdose.

Will the Colts be happy they drafted Andrew Luck?

They'll regret not drafting RG3 instead Yes, he'll be in the HOF someday
