I thought the DQ was warranted. I certainly don't want horses that take the path of others, in a drive, to be kept up.
Rather than blaming the horse or the stewards, you really need to look at your jock. Rocker struggled momentarily and then 'skip' changed early stretch. He was pumped for a few strides THEN COA, out of habit I suppose, busted him righty a few times, causing him to go in. Subtle YET got him DQd.
Don't take much to lose a race.
