If they want to punish Saez for what took place, then fine, but I don't understand this decision to d.q. Atleast in the 2 races at HWD (on Thursday) it wasn't nearly as obvious who was the better horse (on the day.)

Agree on both points- That should be the determination of whether a horse gets disqualified or not, end of story.
