I had the race on DVR and watched the head on multiple times and you are absolutely correct. When Coa went to the right handed whip his horse drifted towards the rail. Once he went to the left whip the horse veered to the outside. Montastic Springs veered out because of He Struck It Rich drifting over. The stewards made the correct decision to keep him up on top.
