I thought this was a good job by the stewards - the 10 was all over the place, as soon as the 9 came inside at the top of the stretch the 10 bashes over towards the rail starting a chain reaction affecting three other horses where one of those horses got squeezed and had to pull up to keep from clipping heels and crashing.
Of course the 10 comes down behind the three he interfered with.
