Hard to tell,but I think Jara's horse does take contact from Gomez horse.You would have to go very slow to see it,but his front legs seem to get caught with the winners back legs. There is a lot going on,but it was critical for Gomez to stay out of that lane.Jara's horse had already taken some kind of contact on his back right.That was the wrong time to force another quick change of direction on him.
