I don't think this has been posted, but was anyone watching the race when the Jockey on the 8 horse got cut off on the rail down the stretch, and while the race is still going on he stands up on his mount and throws the whip at the jockey and horse which cut him off. Classic

Unbelievable! That was hilarious!!! Don't ever force Christian Olmo to check!

Can't figure how to upload it though, considering it's embedded on Race Replays.

I couldn't believe my eyes, do you think he might have won the race if not checked?

I doubt it, but apparently Olmo thinks otherwise. What's even funnier is that apparently his whip toss caught the attention of the stewards, because the horse who cut him off was disqualified from third to fourth!

I actually saw that race the first time it aired, but didn't notice it because I was focusing on the winner. Pretty great.
