That was a poor call imo.

I saw a horse that was brigdejumped at Charles Town about two weeks ago.

He blew the break with JD Acosta, circled up wide into the first turn, and just barely appeared to save 3rd. I was watching the race in a simulcast room, and everyone was like "he almost blew 3rd!" and "Wow, that was close!"

Within about 20 seconds, the horse was posted on the board as the 4th place finisher and Charles Town never showed the photo. I'm sure he must have took a very bad picture and lost the bob ... but half of the room was in disbelief that he lost the photo...and you had the conspiracy talk going because the photo was called in only about 20 seconds after the finish line and Charles Town didn't show it after the race.
