Calvin got through because is fearless and he had a serious racehorse underneath him. If you watch that overhead shot, you'll see that Tiago was right behind Street Sense as the field rounded the turn. Street Sense got through the hole vacated by a tiring Cowtown Cat because of his horse's push-button acceleration. By the time the plodding Tiago got there, the hole had already closed. In the end, good horses tend to get good trips.
