Not justafiably. The slight bump had absolutely no impact on the outcome. They could have run another 1/8 of a mile and I don't think the 6 was getting by Ventana.

See the 2006 Black Eyed Susan for a horse coming down at a major Maryland race for doing less than that.

How would that justify taking down Ventana here? There was no question that the order should not have been changed as the contact clearly didn't have an impact on the outcome, it did not need more than one look. Ventana was clearly best and the 6 was never going to get by him.

My point was that I've seen horses taken down for less than that. I don't think Ventana should have come down, but stewards make stupid decisions all the time and it certainly wouldn't have surprised me if they have reversed the order of finish.
