I agree Matt, I should have been a bit more clear, but I don't think Geroux did anything wrong either. He was hitting his horse right handed and the horse came out on her own. I don't think it was his fault that he could not keep the horse straight but the horse interfered which warranted a DQ. I don't think Geroux deserves any penalty for something I seriously doubt he expected or could control.
