Default Chaos in Del Mar 6th

It's a shame that they can't call a no-contest after a fiasco like that - No Kai Oi seriously interfered with several horses, and certainly cost Grecian the victory.

I call herding on the turn home!

But there is no jock to blame.
Almost took him to the parking lot.
Smart horse that 4.

The loose horse had slowed down, and I think he thought he could get past her before the turn, but as soon as she got company, she started running harder and took him out of the race.
