Bernardini did not lose the race so much as Invasor actively won it.
I saw this too, Ann and I immediately thought about that topic we all had on here regarding what it meant when a horse had his/her ears pricked at the finish line. I remember many posters telling me that I was a complete moron for LIKING when a horse had their ears pricked down the stretch.
