Drugs, your 1st photo shows how far she's floated out into the stretch. She's not that far off the rail on the turn. Victor is where he would be (or even wider) if she hadn't pushed out. He just refuses to be pushed out by the others. Therefore, Candy sandwich. He doesn't have to give them this ground. It's assumed he will, but he is race riding the chalk. So, he participates in the sandwich of TC. That is not a foul. He is just not giving the ground they want. Her being out that wide is a foul right there. If Joel had held his ground (like he should of) there would have been a big collision between Candy n' GD. Instead, he hopes Victor gives him ground. He didn't. It appears Victor came in, because he knows he is gunna have to counter the weight of Candy coming into him. He does everything he can to avoid giving ground to the horses who are floating out. It's race riding. Her floating Candy into Setsuko is a foul (not race riding.) It's too much, and they missed it.
