I watched this race on Calracing at first and thought it seemed ridiculous.
I then watched it on the NJbets site and got the steward views and thought that while it was still a bad DQ, there at least was a modicum of justification for it.

Their reasoning happened at the 3/8ths pole. She 'might' have drifted in about an eighth of an inch or so, which caused the horse on her immediate inside to drift in a bit more and that caused the rail horse to take up violently.

Stormy but Valid's DQ at SA a number of years ago remains the lamest DQ I've seen.
