With an invitation like this, how could you not watch the race? Talk about a situation where bad herding went incredibly wrong.

I completely agree with the DQ on the unofficial winner (#1). Although I am not sure of the rule that would apply, I would have also DQ'd the second place finisher that was put up (#3, 60-1) and placed him behind (#4).

Exactly when did it become legal for a jockey to actually push a horse on his outside to create room? At first I thought that this was in reaction to #1 drifting out, but you can see the jockey actually ride the butt/saddle of the horse to his outside (#4) before contact with the original winner was made.
