I just watched the replay, and Coa's horse was clearly the best. I think if Kent just checks his horse Coa stays up. But since the horse almost went down and the jockey involved has been sent to the principals office a few times they felt compelled to DQ him. Maybe they are trying to send a message, but I disagree with them here. Coa was clear and the whip was put away when the horse drifted in the shadow of the wire.
Question about the 6th. Did they take a look at that race? It looked like Desormeaux slammed the door on Gomez on the rail. I didn't see the head on but GG had to check hard. Was there room for him, because it seemed that he had some horse. There was no mention of an inquiry on the replay show and they left Kent up for third.
