Oh No they have done it again - relegated/disqualified a horse - Charlie May!
He went a little rough for a couple of strides on the final turn and a couple behind him were checked but in Oz it is all part of racing if you run into the back of something

Charlie May’s owner appeals Meadowlands Pace disqualification
“Going to the gate, in my mind it doesn’t matter what happens, I already won. Here’s a little guy with two horses in training, saved the mare from the kill-pen, bred her, barely got the horse in foal, had a foal, a small diminutive Ohio-bred. He’s not some big, strapping colt, he’s a tiny little guy. We overcame everything you could do.”
Believing there was no reason for a disqualification, Miller had brought Charlie May back to the Meadowlands’ winner’s circle. Tiger said the driver told him afterward he was very surprised by the outcome.
“Brett said the horse in front of him interfered with him and that caused the chain reaction,” said Tiger. “He went to the winner’s circle and never thought in a million years they would take us down. It’s a muddy track, there’s bumping at the beginning, and (Southwind Gendry) put some steps in on the backside, he put some steps in on the turn. When you’re watching TV, you see the incident and it goes bang, bang, bang.”

I feel for these people..it looked nothing more than a racing incident..nothing negligent in the drive at all..pretty sure you would have seen the same outcome no matter who was driving the horse in the same circumstance.
And the horse that caused it all (4th across line) got 'promoted' to 3rd!
And as the article states, the drivers aren't even interviewed!
