Or else they don't really watch the races.
I saw the replay show tonight, and obviously a number of horses had trouble on the turn. Without the benefit of the head-on, it was hard to discern who committed the foul that you are talking about? The two horses that seemed to benefit most from the trouble finished 5th and 7th.
