I have no cat/dog/chicken/bull in this fight but how doesn't the 5 come down there behind the 3. Is it Garcia's fault for calling fault on the 1 and not the 5 or when they call for an objection it is just about the race in general?

The incident that you're talking about I believe happened after the 1 played bumper cars with the 3. I have no idea why Coa was not taken down. That was clear robbery. He was inside behind the weakening 2 and decided to whack the three to get position. Then, after getting through he comes out on the 5. I will never understand what goes through the mind of stewards. As it turns out I would have been beat out of the pick-3 with the 2 winning the 9th, so it really didn't matter anyway.

IMO looked like Coa and CourtVision slammed both the 3 and the 5.

It was a great ride by Coa(at least the finish of the ride). There is kind of an unwritten rule that if you are trapped you can do a lot to get free as long as the horses you smash are not win contenders. Had the infraction been against the 6 Atoned maybe he comes down.

Much the best horse.

I don't think so, it was more Cornhelio f'n up the whole race. If he isn't there Garcia gets a clear run on the outside, and the 1 would have had to mess around inside.
