According to the Blood-Horse, which first reported the story, the money dispute now involves “Ward retaining control of 30 horses” owned by the Ramseys. The couple's attorney wrote in a court filing that this is forcing the Ramseys to incur “tens of thousands of dollars in expenses” that they could have otherwise avoided.

The Blood-Horse reported that the Ramseys' response in Jessamine Circuit Court “claims no written agreement between Ramsey and Ward exists that specifies any agreed upon rate, whether a rate applies to any specific horses or number of horses, and the timing of payment.”

According to the court filing, the Ramseys “asked Ward around July 5 to return his horses along with their registration papers and was refused. Ward then filed July 6 for an agister's lien in Fayette County to retain ownership of the horses until the alleged debt is paid,” the Blood-Horse reported.

“This further restricts Defendants' rights in their own property and the inability to race those horses without papers, and there is simply no grounds for such action,” the Blood-Horse reported, quoting from the court filing.
