The most important line in there by Beyer is the inconsistency in calls. That breeds the unfortunate conspiracy theories.

i agree with beyer, the dq was warranted. the dq'd horse bothered the other twice, and both times the horse rallied, and fell short only a neck.
of course the money involved made people think it was something nefarious, but it wasn't....
