Saratoga 5th - No DQ?

[CSC]

Love the chart call of this race:

"clobbered, knocking rival 3 paths sideways, angled out impatiently despite opening on rail"

Funny stuff.

That's why chart callers are useless. Now suckers will bet the 7 back without looking at video.

I agree 100% with the stewards conclusion and decision .. however, unless I'm reading the attatched rule wrong, the horse technically should have been DQ'd.

They've got the rule written as a DISJUNCTION. Sounds as if they meant it to be a CONJUNCTION. The latter is what most horseplayers would want, as well.
