Feel free to point out one horse that steadied even reasonably hard.
OK.
FYI......I didn't look at the chart of this race until after your post because I thought the demolition derby at the beginning of the race was obvious.
I'm including the chart,and then point towards the following words/phrases:
Classic Empire: "hammered off stride".
Tapwrit: "forced into tight quarters by IWC soon after the break"
McCraken: "was jostled hard soon after the break"
J Boys Echo: "forced in and jostled with foes soon after start"
Sooneteer: "steadied out of the jam up and altered towards the fence"
Irap: "was bumped when a victim of the melee soon after the break"

But my favorite is the call for IWC: bore in at the break initiating a chain reaction of trouble"
