The tone of the ESPN coverage just prior to the race was that they could not believe that she was not scratched or at least looked over by the gate Vet just prior to the race. Johnny V said clearly, when interviewed during the warmups, that she was not "acting right".

If the vet wasn't paying attention, all JV had to do was dismount from the horse. That would have sent a clear enough signal.
