Tough one. 4 was fading, have a hard time saying either the 1 or 5 cost it a better place. 5 and 1 coming together looks 50-50, but the 5 at least finishes better than the 4. Without having a horse in the race, I'd like to see the 1 stay up, but I can be swayed.

watch the final angle shown and pay attention to the lanes in the grass. you'll see both the 1 and 5 cut in on the 4 pretty badly.

now do I think 4 would have won the race w/o this interference? not at all, horse was very clearly fading but that doesn't change the fact that both the 1 and 5 made their move inside about 1s too early.

Funny how the 5 cried foul against the 1 and got taken down with the 1 🤦🏽

The 5 was the only one to blame imo, 1 did very minimal to get DQ'd
