The 4 was shorter odds.. they were afraid someone was going to eat a bitter pill so they made more people happy and took down that mean ole 7-1 horse.

seriously the horse failed to maintain a straigt course. I've had horses taken down just because a jockey acted surprised when he got passed. Heck, I've had 'em taken down becasue the horse behind them tried running up their backside.. you can't win when it comes to long odd horses and the stewards.
