Actually, Intercontinental's victory in the Palomar at Del Mar was upheld by the stewards. Furthermore, her lasix injection was 20 minutes late, still well over 3 hours from post time (in CA it must be given no later than 4 hours out). Some states, including Delaware, allow lasix administration up to 3 hours prior to post.
