It would be the same as any other INQUIRY. The Stewards would have to decide if the actions of FF cost Y an opportunity at a better placing. I expect they probably would have looked as close or closer to body contact rather than did his mouth and/or teeth touch Y. I've seen this happen many times. But this was by far the longest and most high profile incident of it's kind for me.

What a bad ass. It looked to me like he was so frustrated by not being able to pass Youpon.

Something new every day in our great sport.
